title = {Binary indexes for optimising corpus queries},
abstract = {To be able to search for patterns in annotated text corpora is crucial for many different research disciplines. However, searching for complex patterns in large corpora can take long time – sometimes several minutes or even hours.
We investigate how inverted indexes can be used for efficient searching in large annotated corpora, and in particular binary indexes. We show how corpus queries are translated into lookups in unary and binary inverted indexes, and give efficient strategies for combining the results using efficient set operations. In addition we discuss how to make use of binary indexes for more complex query types.},

abstract = {This paper presents MoCCA, a Model of Comparative Concepts for Aligning Constructicons under development by a consortium of research groups building Constructicons of different languages including Brazilian Portuguese, English, German and Swedish. The Constructicons will be aligned by using comparative concepts (CCs) providing language-neutral definitions of linguistic properties. The CCs are drawn from typological research on grammatical categories and constructions, and from FrameNet frames, organized in a conceptual network. Language-specific constructions are linked to the CCs in accordance with general principles. MoCCA is organized into files of two types: a largely static CC Database file and multiple Linking files containing relations between constructions in a Constructicon and the CCs. Tools are planned to facilitate visualization of the CC network and linking of constructions to the CCs. All files and guidelines will be versioned, and a mechanism is set up to report cases where a language-specific construction cannot be easily linked to existing CCs.},

evaluate a setup involving a communication board and a toy robot,
which can communicate with each other via synthesized speech. The
purpose is to provide children with communicative disabilities
with a toy that is fun and easy to use together with peers, with
and without disabilities. When the child selects a symbol on the
communication board, the board speaks and the robot responds.
This encourages the child to use language and learn to cooperate
to reach a common goal. Throughout the project, three children
with cerebral palsy and their peers use the robot and provide
feedback for further development. The multimodal interaction with
the robot is video recorded and analyzed together with
observational data in activity diaries.

title = {Learning Domain-Specific Grammars from a Small Number of Examples},
abstract = {In this chapter we investigate the problem of grammar learning from a perspective that diverges from previous approaches. These prevailing approaches to learning grammars usually attempt to infer a grammar directly from example corpora without any additional information. This either requires a large training set or suffers from bad accuracy. We instead view learning grammars as a problem of grammar restriction or subgrammar extraction. We start from a large-scale grammar (called a resource grammar) and a small number of example sentences, and find a subgrammar that still covers all the examples. To accomplish this, we formulate the problem as a constraint satisfaction problem, and use a constraint solver to find the optimal grammar. We created experiments with English, Finnish, German, Swedish, and Spanish, which show that 10–20 examples are often sufficient to learn an interesting grammar for a specific application. We also present two extensions to this basic method: we include negative examples and allow rules to be merged. The resulting grammars can more precisely cover specific linguistic phenomena. Our method, together with the extensions, can be used to provide a grammar learning system for specific applications. This system is easy-to-use, human-centric, and can be used by non-syntacticians. Based on this grammar learning method, we can build applications for computer-assisted language learning and interlingual communication, which rely heavily on the knowledge of language and domain experts who often lack the competence to develop required grammars themselves.},

Since GF is a multilingual grammar formalism, it is straightforward to extend the dialogue system to several languages. Furthermore, the GF Resource Grammar Library can be used to write a single concrete instance covering 13 different languages. },

To the best of our knowledge, these computational resource grammars are the first attempt to the creation of language resources for R&R. In Future Work, we plan to use these grammars to bootstrap the generation of other linguistic resources such as multilingual corpora that make use of data-driven approaches to natural language processing feasible.

title = {Assessing the quality of Språkbanken’s annotations},
abstract = {Most of the corpora in Språkbanken Text consist of unannotated plain text, such as almost all newspaper texts, social media texts, novels and official documents. We also have some corpora that are manually annotated in different ways, such as Talbanken (annotated for part-of-speech and syntactic structure), and the Stockholm Umeå Corpus (annotated for part-of-speech). Språkbanken’s annotation pipeline Sparv aims to automatise the work of automatically annotating all our corpora, while still keeping the manual annotations intact. When all corpora are annotated, they can be made available, e.g., in the corpus searh tools Korp and Strix. Until now there has not been any comprehensive overview of the annotation tools and models that Sparv has been using for the last eight years. Some of them have not been updated since the start, such as the part-of-speech tagger Hunpos and the dependency parser MaltParser. There are also annotation tools that we still have not included, such as a constituency-based parser.
Therefore Språkbanken initiated a project with the aim of conducting such an overview. This document is the outcome of that project, and it contains descriptions of the types of manual and automatic annotations that we currently have in Språkbanken, as well as an incomplete overview of the state-of-the-art with regards to annotation tools and models. },

of some standard parsing algorithms for context-free grammars. The goal
has been to implement the algorithms in a way that is close to their intuitive formulations,
not sacri cing computational e ciency. The implementations only
use simple data structures not relying on a global updateable state, thus opening
the way for nice functional implementations.
Finally the thesis implements parser combinators that can collect the grammatical
structure in the program, to be able to use any suitable parsing algorithm
and not just recursive descent. However, this requires an mildly impure extension
of the host language Haskell.},

title = {Expressivity and Complexity of the Grammatical Framework},
abstract = {This thesis investigates the expressive power and parsing complexity of the Grammatical Framework (GF), a formalism originally designed for displaying formal propositions and proofs in natural language. This is done by relating GF with two more well-known grammar formalisms; Generalized Context-Free Grammar (GCFG), best seen as a framework for describing various grammar formalisms; and Parallel Multiple Context-Free Grammar (PMCFG), an instance of GCFG.
Since GF is a fairly new theory, some questions about expressivity and parsing complexity have until now not been answered; and these questions are the main
focus of this thesis. The main result is that the important subclass context-free GF is equivalent to PMCFG, which has polynomial parsing complexity, and whose expressive power is fairly well known.
Furthermore, we give a number of tabular parsing algorithms for PMCFG with polynomial complexity, by extending existing algorithms for context-free grammars. We suggest three possible extensions of GF/PMCFG, and discuss how the
expressive power and parsing complexity are influenced. Finally, we discuss the parsing problem for unrestricted GF grammars, which is undecidable in general.
We nevertheless describe a procedure for parsing grammars containing higher-order functions and dependent types.},

(Kilbury, 1985; Wir´en, 1992). This is one of the many chart parsing variants, which are
all based on the data structure of charts. The chart parsing process uses inference rules to
add new edges to the chart, and parsing is complete when no further edges can be added.
One novel aspect of this implementation is that it doesnt have to rely on a global
state for the implementation of the chart. This makes the code clean, elegant and declarative,
while still having the same space and time complexity as the standard imperative
implementations.},

So far, these resources have been developed and maintained in separate and uncoordinated efforts, either by commercial or non-profit actors, and targeting different specific groups and needs. In the long run, this is a non-inclusive, ineffective and expensive way of proceeding, leading to limited benefit for AAC users and stake-holders, as well as for potential wider application. In a number of related efforts, work is underway to link free symbol libraries (at present Blissymbols and ARASAAC), where applicable using the Concept Coding Framework (CCF) technology, to common state-of-the-art lexical resources and language technology. The aim is to gradually establish a foundation for inclusive AAC support based on, and included in, mainstream and openly available lexical and language resources for wide use in all sectors of society. Following up results in this area from the European AEGIS project, work is now proceeding in cooperation between DART (centre for AAC and AT), Språkbanken (the Swedish Language Bank) and Centre for language Technology (CLT), University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and others. Results from this work will be presented and demonstrated, and the implications will be discussed. These, and several other signs of the time, strongly indicate that this is way to go.

The grammar is small, consisting of not more than 25 grammatical and 60 lexical rules. The parser uses simple error correction together with a straightforward iterative deepening search. Nevertheless, with these very basic algorithms, the system still managed to get 86.1% correctness on the evaluation data. Even more interesting is that by making the parser slightly more robust, the accuracy of the system rises to 93.5%, and by adding one single word to the lexicon, the accuracy is boosted to 98.0%.},

The robot has been tested on three children, two with cerebral palsy and one with autism spectrum disorder. During this session we present the preliminary results.},

abstract = {TrindiKit is one of the main tools for developing ISU-based dialogue systems, but it is implemented in a non-free dialect of the programming language Prolog. Therefore we have translated the TrindiKit toolkit into an open-source Python package. We have tried to remain close to the original TrindiKit formulation, while making the most of Python classes and objects.},
