Abstract

In this paper, a deterministic recognition algorithm for the class of tree languages accepted by (nondeterministic) linear pushdown tree automata (L-PDTAs) is proposed. L-PDTAs accept an important class of tree languages since the class of their yield languages coincides with the class of yield languages generated by tree adjoining grammars (TAGs). The proposed algorithm is obtained by combining a bottom-up parsing procedure on trees with the CKY (Cocke-Kasami-Younger) algorithm. The running time of the algorithm is O(n4), where n is the number of nodes of an input tree.
