Remarks on Linearization. Reflections on the treatment of LP-rules in HPSG in a typed feature logic.

Frank Richter and Manfred Sailer

Unpublished Master's Thesis. Universität Tübingen. 264 pages.

In this thesis we outline the architecture of a general LP component for HPSGrammars within a very conservative logic for HPSG, Paul King's SRL. It is shown that using the well-known junk slot technique, it is possible to define a powerful linearization module for HPSG which allows to encode arbitrary word order rules.
