Under categorial grammars that have powerful rules like composition, a simple n-word sentence can have exponentially many parses. Generating all parses is inefficient and obscures whatever true semantic ambiguities are in the input. This paper addresses the problem for a fairly general form of Combinatory Categorial Grammar, by means of an efficient, correct, and easy to implement normal-form parsing technique. The parser is proved to find exactly one parse in each semantic equivalence class of allowable parses; that is, spurious ambiguity (as carefully defined) is shown to be both safely and completely eliminated. . | Efficient Normal-Form Parsing for Combinatory Categorial Grammar Jason Eisner Dept of Computer and Information Science University of Pennsylvania 200 s. 33rd St. Philadelphia PA 19104-6389 USA j Abstract Under categorial grammars that have powerful rules like composition a simple n-word sentence can have exponentially many parses.

The non-standard constituents that are so crucial to CCG s analyses in 1 and in its account of into-national focus Prevost Steedman 1994 remain available even in simpler sentences. This renders 2 syntactically ambiguous. 1 a. Coordination John likes g NP. and Mary pretends to like S Np the big galoot in the corner. b. Extraction Everybody at this party whom John likesjg pjp is a big galoot. 2 a. John likes Mary s NP- b. John likes g Mp Mary. The practical problem of extra parses in 2 becomes exponentially worse for longer strings which can have up to a Catalan number of parses. An This material is based upon work supported under a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellowship. I have been grateful for the advice of Aravind Joshi Nobo Komagata Seth Kulick Michael Niv Mark Steedman and three anonymous reviewers. exhaustive parser serves up 252 CCG parses of 3 which must be sifted through at considerable cost in order to identify the two distinct meanings for further 3 the .
