ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for forming a reconstructed parse structure for an initial parse structure. Under the method, at least one rule used to form the initial parse structure and at least one additional rule are executed to form the reconstructed parse structure. In many embodiments, the reconstructed parse structure differs from the initial parse structure in that a node is located in a different position in the reconstructed parse structure than in the initial parse structure.
