Abstract:

GPARS is a generalized transition network system designed for language study by bothstudents and researchers. The GPARS system generalizes the Augmented TransitionNetwork formalism by allowing top-down, bottom-up, depth-first, breadth-first,deterministic, and nondeterministic parsing strategies to be freely intermixed. Thesevarious strategies have also allowed the system to be used for par-sing Chinese,Russian, Japanese, and other languages.
