NOOJ COMPUTATIONAL DEVICES MAX SILBERZTEIN Introduction NooJ’s linguistic development environment provides tools for linguists to construct linguistic resources that formalize 7 types of linguistic phenomena: typography, orthography, inflectional and derivational morphology, local and structural syntax, and semantics. NooJ also provides a set of parsers that can process any linguistic resource for these 7 types, and apply it to any corpus of texts in order to extract examples, annotate matching sequences, perform statistical analyses, etc.1 NooJ’s approach to Linguistics is peculiar in the world of Computational Linguistics: instead of constructing a large single grammar to describe a particular natural language (e.g. “a grammar of English”), NooJ users typically construct, edit, test and maintain a large number of local (small) grammars; for instance, there is a grammar that describes how to conjugate the verb to be, another grammar that describes how to state a date in English, another grammar that describes the heads of Noun Phrases, etc.

  • Implementation of Unrestricted Grammar in to the Recursively Enumerable Language Using Turing Machine
    The International Journal Of Engineering And Science (IJES) ||Volume||2 ||Issue|| 3 ||Pages|| 56-59 ||2013|| ISSN: 2319 – 1813 ISBN: 2319 – 1805 Implementation of Unrestricted Grammar in To the Recursively Enumerable Language Using Turing Machine 1,Jainendra Singh, 2, Dr. S.K. Saxena 1,Department of Computer Science, Maharaja Surajmal Institute 2,Department of Computer Engineering, Delhi Technological University -------------------------------------------------------Abstract------------------------------------------------------- This paper presents the implementation of the unrestricted grammar in to recursively enumerable language for JFLAP platform. Automata play a major role in compiler design and parsing. The class of formal languages that work for the most complex problems belongs to the set of Recursively Enumerable Language (REL).RELs are accepted by the type of automata as Turing Machine. Turing Machines are the most powerful computational machines and are the theoretical basis for modern computers. Turing Machine works for all classes of languages including regular language, CFL as well as Recursive Enumerable Languages. Unrestricted grammar are much more powerful than restricted forms like the regular and context free grammars. In facts, unrestricted grammars corresponds to the largest family of languages so we can hope to recognize by mechanical means; that is unrestricted grammars generates exactly the family of recursively enumerable languages. Turing Machine is used to implementation of unrestricted grammar & RELs for JFLAP

    Regular Expressions COMP2600 — Formal Methods for Software Engineering Katya Lebedeva Australian National University Semester 2, 2016 Slides created by Katya Lebedeva COMP 2600 — Regular Expressions 1 Regular Expressions and Finite State Automata Regular expressions can define exactly the same languages that finite state automata describe: the regular languages. Regular expressions offer a declar- ative way to express the strings we want to accept. That is why many systems that process strings use regular expressions as the input language: file search commands (e.g. UNIX grep) • lexical analyzers • these systems convert the regular expression into either a DFA or an NFA, and simulate the automaton on the file being searched • uses the automaton to recognize which token appears next on the input • COMP 2600 — Regular Expressions 2 Example Consider the expression (0 + 1)01⇤ The language described by this expression is the set of all binary strings that start with either 0 or 1 as indicated by (0 + 1), • for which the second symbol is 0 • that end with zero or more 1s as indicated by 1 • ⇤ The language described by this expression is 00,001,0011,00111,...,10,101,1011,10111,... { } COMP 2600 — Regular Expressions 3 Definition of a regular expression Given an alphabet S.

  • Unrestricted Grammar Example Definition 1 Example
    Unrestricted Grammar Example Definition By now you have seen grammars that are called Context Free Grammars which by definition only have a single variable on the left side in each of the production (replacement rules). It is interesting to explore the possibilities once this restriction is removed. In fact, such grammars where any combination of variables and terminals can appear on the left side are called unrestricted grammars. 1 Example While you have probably seen how to construct a context free grammar for fwwRjw 2 fa; bg∗g if you try to make a context free grammar for D = fwwjw 2 fa; bg∗g however, it will prove to be impossible. In fact, using the pumping lemma, it is possible to prove that this language D is not context free. The interesting question, is whether an unrestricted grammar can help us achieve this. Since the solution is quite tricky we will provide the rules and see how they are derived. This example solution is taken from reference. We begin by just adapting the solution for wwR to have some indicators for the beginning and the end of the reversed portion. Enter the following in JFLAP S ! Q# Q ! aQa Q ! bQb Q ! T This will produce strings where the reverse of the first part can be found between T and #. The key now is to add rules that will help in reversing this portion of the string. The idea is to add a rule T ! TR. Now the R can be used to slowly reverse the next two characters. This is where the unrestricted nature of the grammar truly plays a part.
