Abstract
One of the current focuses of research within natural language processing is the partial and robust parsing of sentences written in natural language. Partial parsing could be used in diverse applications as data extraction, machine translation, dialogue systems, etc. His main attractiveness is that is able to handle unrestricted sentences, that contain lexical errors or that present constructions not accepted by the defined grammar. Partial parsing is an alternative to the definition of wide coverage grammars whose definition is an expensive and complex task and that present well-known problems such as overgeneration, undergeneration and ambiguity. In this paper, we present a partial parser of unrestricted natural language sentences APOLN (Analizador Parcial de Oraciones en Lenguaje Natural) which is based on finite-state machines. APOLN is an incremental parser that permits the compiling and inheritance of feature structures between levels of processing. We present the results of applying APOLN on an unrestricted Spanish corpus and we will use it in a speech dialogue system. 1
