Syntactic Category Formation with Vector Space Grammars
Abstract
A method for deriving phrase structure categories from structured samples of a context-free language is presented. The learning algorithm is based on adaptation and competition, as well as error backpropagation in a continuous vector space. These connectionist-style techniques become applicable to grammars as the traditional grammar formalism is generalized to use vectors instead of symbols as category labels. More generally, it is argued that the conversion of symbolic formalisms to continuous representations is a promising way of combining the connectionist learning techniques with the structures and theoretical insights embodied in classical models.
