Abstract

Comprehension grammars for a sample of ten languages (English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Catalan, Russian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese) were derived by machine learning from corpora of about 400 sentences. Key concepts in our learning theory are: probabilistic association of words and meanings, grammatical and semantical form generalization, grammar computations, congruence of meaning, and dynamical assignment of denotational value to a word.
