Automatic English sentence analysis.
Final Report. AFOSR Grant 65–76. IDAMI Language Research Section, Milan.
The report contains a discursive description and flow diagrams of the machine program written for a GE 425 computer in order to implement the previously developed “Multistore Procedure.” Advances in several related problem areas are reported: Classification of words in terms of “correlation indices, i.e. by means of code numbers representing the words” possibilities of forming syntatic combinations with others; Reclassification, i.e. assignation of correlation indices to word combinations; Correlator range, i.e. the extent of syntactic government – in this case of prepositions – in English sentences; Grammatical and semantic factor analysis, i.e. analysis of grammatical functions and semantic content in terms of constant factors.
