Description of the LINK system used for MUC-5

Published:25 August 1993Publication History

ABSTRACT

Over the past five years, we have developed a natural language processing (NLP) system called LINK. LINK is a unification-based system, in which all syntactic and semantic analysis is performed in a single step. Syntactic and semantic information are both represented in the grammar in a uniform manner, similar to HPSG (Pollard and Sag, 1987).
