| Abstract | This paper describes the Spanish Resource Grammar, an open-source multi-purposebroad-coverage precise grammar for Spanish. The grammar is implemented on theLinguistic Knowledge Builder (LKB) system, it is grounded in the theoreticalframework of Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), and it uses MinimalRecursion Semantics (MRS) for the semantic representation. We have developed ahybrid architecture which integrates shallow processing functionalities --morphological analysis, and Named Entity recognition and classification -- intothe parsing process. The SRG has a full coverage lexicon of closed word classesand it contains 50,852 lexical entries for open word classes. The grammar alsohas 64 lexical rules to perform valence changing operations on lexical items,and 191 phrase structure rules that combine words and phrases into largerconstituents and compositionally build up their semantic representation. Theannotation of each parsed sentence in an LKB grammar simultaneously representsa traditional phrase structure tree, and a MRS semantic representation. Weprovide evaluation results on sentences from newspaper texts and discuss futurework. |
