汉语叙述文中的小句前部省略现象初析

The Delesion of the Fronts of Clauses in Chinese Narratives

汉语篇章中省略的现象十分常见。大多数的省略发生在句子的前部,本文中称为前部省略。本文从这一现象出发,提出了汉语叙述文基于前部省略的树形结构,称作参照树,分析了参照树的某些形式规律和语义规律。这一工作的目标是为用计算机处理汉语篇章提供形式化模型和算法设计的依据。目前的结果是初步的和粗糙的,但已经展示出了一系列需要在计算语言学范围内加以深入研究的课题。

It is often seen in Chinese discourses that some words or phrases are deleted. In most of the cases the deleted part is the froat of a clause. Investigating the phenomena, this paper shows tha ta Chinese narrative has a tree structure based on the delesion of the fronts of clauses. It is called referent tree. Also, the paper studies some regularity of syntax and semantics of the referent tree. The goal of the project is to provide a formal model and some guides for computers to process Chinese discourses. The present results are very rough, but they reveals a set of problems which should be studied in the area of computational linguistics.
