Hdrug

Hdrug is an environment to develop logic grammars / parsers / generators for natural languages. Hdrug offers various tools to visualize lexical entries, grammar rules, definite-clause definitions, parse trees, feature structures, lexical- rule- and type-hierarchies, graphs of the comparison of different parsers on a corpus of test sentences etc., in a Tk widget, LaTeX/DVI format, and the Clig system.

The package comes with a number of example grammars, including a Categorial Grammar, a Tree Adjoining Grammar, a Unification Grammar in the spirit of Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar, an Extraposition Grammar and a Definite Clause Grammar. Each of the grammars comes with a set of parsers, such as Earley-like chart parsers, left-corner parsers and head-driven parsers. Some grammars come with variants of the head-driven generator.
