    Harris expanded on Bloomfield's distributional analysis by providing a more formal approach to syntactic structure, specifically in English sentence analysis. In the 1940s and 1950s, Harris introduced the concept of immediate constituents as the parts of a sentence that can be directly combined to form larger units, such as noun phrases (NPs ...

    Ratios may be unitless, as in the case they relate quantities in units of the same dimension, even if their units of measurement are initially different. For example, the ratio one minute : 40 seconds can be reduced by changing the first value to 60 seconds, so the ratio becomes 60 seconds : 40 seconds. Once the units are the same, they can be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compositional_data

    In geology, a rock composed of different minerals may be a compositional data point in a sample of rocks; a rock of which 10% is the first mineral, 30% is the second, and the remaining 60% is the third would correspond to the triple [0.1, 0.3, 0.6]. A data set would contain one such triple for each rock in a sample of rocks.

    This point is evident with the two tree diagrams above of the sentence Drunks could put off the customers, where the dependency grammar analysis of constituent structure looks very much unlike the phrase structure analysis. The crucial difference across the two analyses is that the phrase structure analysis views every individual word as a ...

  9. Syntactic parsing (computational linguistics) - Wikipedia

    The most popular algorithm for constituency parsing is the Cocke–Kasami–Younger algorithm (CKY), [4] [5] which is a dynamic programming algorithm which constructs a parse in worst-case (| |) time, on a sentence of words and | | is the size of a CFG given in Chomsky Normal Form.
