Grammars of natural languages can be expressed as mathematical
objects, similar to computer programs. Such a formal presentation
of grammars facilitates mathematical reasoning with grammars (and
the languages they denote), as well as computational implementation
of grammar processors. This book presents one of the most commonly
used grammatical formalisms, Unification Grammars, which underlies
contemporary linguistic theories such as Lexical-Functional Grammar
(LFG) and Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG). The book
provides a robust and rigorous exposition of the formalism that is
both mathematically well-founded and linguistically motivated.
While the material is presented formally, and much of the text is
mathematically oriented, a core chapter of the book addresses
linguistic applications and the implementation of several
linguistic insights in unification grammars. Dozens of examples and
numerous exercises (many with solutions) illustrate key points.
Graduate students and researchers in both computer science and
linguistics will find this book a valuable resource.
