Syntactic Parsing is a method of syntactic analysis of a sentence (e.g. the task of determining the parse-tree of a given sentence)

  • grammar - a formal specification of the structures allowable in the language
  • parser - algorithm for assigning syntactic structure to an input sentence

Syntactic Parsing - Types

Phrase Parsing
  • focuses on building out parse-tree of constituents (e.g. sub-phrases and words)

Dependency Parsing
  • focuses on the relationships between words in a sentence (e.g. marking words like subject, direct objects, etc)
