Research Abstract

We introduced a restricted model of context-free tree grammars called spine grammars, and studied their formal properties including considerably simple normal forms. Recent research on natural languages has suggested that formalisms for natural languages need to generate a slightly larger class of languages than context-free grammars, and for that reason tree adjoining grammars have been widely studied relating them to natural languages. It was shown that the class of string languages generated by spine grammars coincides with that of tree adjoining grammars. We also introduced acceptors called linear pushdown tree automatas are obtained from pushdown tree automata with restriction on duplicability for the pushdown stacks. We also investigated learning theory and obtained a polynomial time inference algorithm for Moore type sequential machines. Further we also investigated the automata models for tree adjoining grammars and introduced a model called transfer pushdown automata.
