Yab: a GLR Parser Generator for S-Attributed Grammars

Participant : Lionel Clément [ correspondent ] .

YAB is a GLR parser generator for S-Attributed grammars. This compiler has been used to develop a syntactic parser dealing with homonymies in LFG. It relies on a specific restriction of the LFG formalism to build a polynomial-time syntactic parser. This software has been developed by Lionel Clément (before he joined the Signes project-team). It is publicly available (http://www.labri.fr/perso/clement/yab/ ).
