documentation

Abstract
We see a communication problem between the grammar engineering
community and the NLP community. The information to be communicated
is the results produced by a grammar. This paper is about our solution
to the problem. Our solution has two components: an alternative output
format and its documentation. Our alternative output format carries
constituency information that parsers are built for computing, but in
lesser quantity and a simpler form than the standard AVM output
format. The documentation for it provides shallow and static
explanation different from the deep and dynamic explanation found in
literatures about grammar formalisms meant for grammar writers. The
shallow and static explanation is meant to enable members of the NLP
community to achieve a shallow level of understanding of the results
produced by a grammar for the sake of developing NLP systems that
interoperate with parsers.
