Automatic Syntactic Analysis of an English Sentence: Application and Perspectives
Journal Title: Вісник Житомирського державного університету імені Івана Франка - Year 2017, Vol 85, Issue 1
Abstract
The article deals with the automatic syntactic analysis (parsing) of an English sentence. The existing spheres of its application and the natural language processing approaches serve as the research material of the study. Automatic syntactic analysis of an English sentence has not received due attention in Ukrainian linguistics, though the scientific results of formal grammar schools and scholars enable wide perspectives thereof. The scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, description and comparison as well as linguistic methods of substitution and transformation have been used in order to single out the main areas of application of automatic syntactic analysis today and to define problematic issues, which have not been sufficiently solved yet. The article describes the use of parsing for the purposes of automatic information search, question answering, logical conclusions, authorship verification, text authenticity verification, grammar check, natural language synthesis and other related tasks, such as analysis of ungrammatical sentences, morphological class definition, anaphora resolution etc. The article provides tips of how automatic syntactic analysis can improve the solution of a particular task within the analyzed application spheres. The analysis identified a number of linguistic issues that will contribute to the development of an improved model of automatic syntactic analysis: lexical and grammatical synonymy and homonymy, hypo- and hyperonymy, lexical and semantic fields, anaphora resolution, ellipsis, inversion etc.
