1 Norml Forms for Context-free Grmmrs 1

2 Linz 6th, Section 6.2 wo Importnt Norml Forms, pges

3 Chomsky Norml Form All productions hve form: A BC nd A vrile vrile terminl 3

4 Exmples: S AS S AS S S AAS A SA A SA A A Chomsky Norml Form Not Chomsky Norml Form 4

5 Conversion to Chomsky Norml Form Exmple: S AB A B Ac Not Chomsky Norml Form 5

6 6 Ac B A AB S Introduce vriles for terminls: c A B A AB S c c c,,

7 7 Introduce intermedite vrile: c A B A AB S c c c A B A B V AV S c c 1 1 V 1

8 8 Introduce intermedite vrile: c A B V V A B V AV S c c V 2 c A B A B V AV S c c 1 1

9 9 Finl grmmr in Chomsky Norml Form: c A B V V A B V AV S c c Ac B A AB S Initil grmmr

10 In generl: From ny context-free grmmr not in Chomsky Norml Form we cn otin: An equivlent grmmr in Chomsky Norml Form 10

11 he Procedure First remove: Nullle vriles Unit productions 11

12 For every symol : Add production In productions: replce with New vrile: 12

13 Replce ny production A C C 1 2 C n with A V 1 C V 1 C 2 1 V 2 V n2 C n1 C n New intermedite vriles: V1, V2,, V n 2 13

14 heorem: For ny context-free grmmr G such tht the empty string is not in L(G), there is n equivlent grmmr in Chomsky Norml Form Linz, 6 th, heorem 6.6, pge

15 Oservtions Chomsky norml forms re good for prsing nd proving theorems It is very esy to find the Chomsky norml form of ny context-free grmmr 15

16 Greich Norml Form All productions hve form: A V V 1 2 V k k 0 symol vriles 16

17 Exmples: S cab S S A A B S B Greich Norml Form Not Greich Norml Form 17

18 Conversion to Greich Norml Form: S S S S S S Greich Norml Form 18

19 heorem: For ny context-free grmmr G such tht the empty string is not in L(G), there is n equivlent grmmr in Greich Norml Form Linz, 6 th, heorem 6.7, pge 176. Proof not given ecuse it is too complicted. 19

20 Oservtions Greich norml forms re very good for prsing It is hrd to find the Greich norml form of ny context-free grmmr 20

21 An Appliction of Chomsky Norml Forms 21

22 he CYK Memership Algorithm J. Cocke, D. H. Younger, nd. Ksmi Input: Grmmr in Chomsky Norml Form G String w Output: find if w L(G) 22

23 Considers every possile consecutive susequence of letters nd sets K [i,j] if the sequence of letters strting from i to j cn e generted from the non-terminl K. Once it hs considered sequences of length 1, it goes on to sequences of length 2, nd so on. 23

24 For susequences of length 2 nd greter, it considers every possile prtition of the susequence into two hlves, nd checks to see if there is some production A-> BC such tht B mtches the first hlf nd C Mtches the second hlf. If so, it records A s mtching the whole susequence. Once this process is completed, the sentence is recognized y the grmmr if the entire string is mtched y the strt symol. 24

25 Input exmple: he Algorithm Grmmr : G S AB A BB A B AB B String : w 25

26 [0:1] [1:2] [2:3] [3:4] [4:5] [0:2] [1:3] [2:4] [3:5] [0:3] [1:4] [2:5] [0:4] [1:5] [0:5] 26
