A SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC SYNTACTIC ANALYSIS OF LITHUANIAN SIMPLE SENTENCES

Abstract

The problem of automation of syntactic analysis of the Lithuanian simple sentences is investigated. The features of Lithuanian language – great inflexion and free word order in a sentence – which raise the specific claims for solving the problem of syntactic analysis of Lithuanian sentences are highlighted. The formalized procedure of syntactic analysis is based on the Backus and Naur formalism. The possibilities of extension of the boundaries of the procedure for syntactic analysis are shown. The article presents an algorithm and software for syntactic analysis of Lithuanian simple sentences. The accuracy of performance of the system was evaluated.
