Three Generative, Lexicalised Models for Statistical Parsing

In this paper we first propose a new statistical parsing model, which is a generative model of lexicalised context-free gram- mar. We then extend the model to in- clude a probabilistic treatment of both subcategorisation and wh~movement. Results on Wall Street Journal text show that the parser performs at 88.1/87.5% constituent precision/recall, an average improvement of 2.3% over (Collins 96).
