Abstract

A striking property of the human parser is its efficiency and robustness. For the vast majority of sentences, the parser will effortlessly and rapidly deliver the correct analysis. In doing so, it is robust to noise, i.e., it can provide an analysis even if the input is distorted, e.g., by ungrammaticalities. Furthermore, the human parser achieves broad coverage: it deals with a wide variety of syntactic constructions, and is not restricted by the domain, genre, or modality of the input.
