Abstract

A generative probability model for unification-based grammars is presented in which rule probabilities depend on the feature structure of the expanded constituent. The presented model is the first model which requires no normalization and allows the application of dynamic programming algorithms for disambiguation (Viterbi) and training (Inside-Outside). Another advantage is the small number of parameters.
