摘要:Weighted tree transducers have been proposed
as useful formal models for representing
syntactic natural language processing
applications, but there has been
little description of inference algorithms
for these automata beyond formal foundations.
We give a detailed description of
algorithms for application of cascades of
weighted tree transducers to weighted tree
acceptors, connecting formal theory with
actual practice. Additionally, we present
novel on-the-fly variants of these algorithms,
and compare their performance
on a syntax machine translation cascade
based on (Yamada and Knight, 2001).
