In LTAG, each word anchors elementary trees that encode its local syntactic and predicate-argument constraints. The system chains several components: 2. **[Adapting a Medical speech to speech translation system (MedSLT) to Arabic](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bouillon-2007-adapting-medical-speech-speech-translation/)** *(2007 · 5 citations)* The paper extends MedSLT, a grammar-based medical speech translation system for doctor–patient diagnosis dialogues, to Arabic. 3. **[A comparison of the XTAG and CLE Grammars for English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/rayner-2000-comparison-xtag-cle-grammars-english/)** *(2000)* Rayner, Hockey and James argue that teams building large grammars gradually stop noticing phenomena they have labelled "marginal". 4. **[Determining Determiner Sequencing: A Syntactic Analysis for English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/hockey-1994-determining-determiner-sequencing-syntactic-analysis/)** *(1994)* English allows sequences of determiners, such as all these, both the, or half the, but in a fixed order, and some sequences are ungrammatical (all what no). ## All works 9 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 4 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[XTAG System - A Wide Coverage Grammar for English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/doran-1994-xtag-system-wide-coverage-grammar/) [International Conference on Computational Linguistics (COLING)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/coling/)**Christy Doran, Dania Egedi, Beth Ann Hockey, et al.*1994 · 46 citations* 2. **[Evaluating Task Performance for a Unidirectional Controlled Language Medical Speech Translation System ↗](https://aclanthology.org/W06-3702/) Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Medical Speech Translation · no summary yet**Nikos Chatzichrisafis et al.*2006 · 26 citations* 3. **[A Bidirectional Grammar-Based Medical Speech Translator ↗](https://aclanthology.org/W07-1806/) Proceedings of the Workshop on Grammar-Based Approaches to Spoken Language Processing · no summary yet**Pierrette Bouillon et al.*2007 · 24 citations* 4. **[Using Artificially Generated Data to Evaluate Statistical Machine Translation ↗](https://aclanthology.org/W09-2607/) Proceedings of the 2009 Workshop on Grammar Engineering Across Frameworks (GEAF 2009) · no summary yet**Manny Rayner et al.*2009 · 7 citations* 5. **[Adapting a Medical speech to speech translation system (MedSLT) to Arabic](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/bouillon-2007-adapting-medical-speech-speech-translation/) [Workshop on Computational Approaches to Semitic Languages: Common Issues and Resources](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/workshop-on-computational-approaches-to-semitic-languages-common-issues-and/)**Pierrette Bouillon, Sonia Halimi, Manny Rayner, et al.*2007 · 5 citations* 6. **[Using Paraphrases of Deep Semantic Representions to Support Regression Testing in Spoken Dialogue Systems ↗](https://aclanthology.org/W09-1503/) Proceedings of the Workshop on Software Engineering, Testing, and Quality Assurance for Natural Language Processing (SETQA-NLP 2009) · no summary yet**Beth Ann Hockey, Manny Rayner*2009 · 1 citation* 7. **[MedSLT: A Limited-Domain Unidirectional Grammar-Based Medical Speech Translator ↗](https://aclanthology.org/W06-3707/) Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Medical Speech Translation · no summary yet**Manny Rayner et al.*2006* 8. **[A comparison of the XTAG and CLE Grammars for English](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/rayner-2000-comparison-xtag-cle-grammars-english/) [International Workshop on Tree Adjoining Grammar and Related Frameworks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/international-workshop-on-tree-adjoining-grammar-and-related-frameworks/)**Manny Rayner, Beth Ann Hockey, Frankie James*2000* 9.
