Constraint Solving and Language Processing (Electronic book text)

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the First International Workshop on Constraint Solving and Language Processing, CSLP 2004, held in Roskilde, Denmark in September 2004. The 8 revised papers presented together with 4 invited papers by leading researchers went through two rounds of reviewing, selection, and improvement for inclusion in the book. Among the topics addressed are property grammars, abduction, metagrammars, NLP semantics, induction, graph configuration for NLP, constraint based grammars, parsing, human sentence processing, constraint optimization, and natural language generation.
