Lexicalization<br />

Example (CFG which is not strongly lexicalizable with a TSG)<br />

Consider the following CFG:<br />

An intuitive approach to lexicalize<br />

it with a TSG might be:<br />

S → SS<br />

S → a<br />

S<br />

a<br />

S↓<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S↓<br />

But this is not a strong lexicalization<br />

because it cannot generate the following<br />

tree (which the CFG can generate):<br />

S<br />

a<br />

S<br />

a<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S<br />

S<br />

Problem: In TSGs the distance between two nodes in the same<br />

initial tree cannot increase during derivation.<br />
