This package implements a statistical syntactic parser for natural language
sentences. It estimates the probability of a parse using a neural network
architecture for structure processing called Simple Synchrony Networks.
This package includes two trained parsers which can be used to parse English
text. It also supports training new generative models or new
conditionally-trained models. For a description of the generative SSN parsing
model, see [Henderson, NAACL 2003]. For a description of conditional training
with this model see [Henderson, ACL 2004]. A future version of this package
will include the code to support deriving data-defined kernels from SSNs
[Henderson and Titov, ACL 2005], [Titov and Henderson, IJCNN 2005].
