ABSTRACT:
A system is provided for dramatically decreasing the time required to parse a sentence by automatically converting a context-free grammar into a lexicalized form called lexicalized context-free grammar (LCFG) which is used in the parsing process. Lexicalized context-free grammar employs adjoining but, to decrease parsing time, only allows non-wrapping adjoining. The lexicalized context-free grammar is parsed using a parser that decreases parsing time by filtering the grammar based on the words in a sentence and maintaining the valid prefix property while parsing.
