Groups for Surface Realization with Extensible Dependency Grammar

Ralph Debusmann

In this talk, I extend Extensible Dependency Grammar (XDG) (Debusmann et al. 2004) with the new notion of "groups". Groups are a higher level of lexical organization, and essentially allow to store dependency subgraphs in the lexicon, instead of just singular nodes. We show how this idea helps us to give an account of natural language realization in XDG.
This talk builds on a project from last year's summer school ("Realization with XDG").
