Grammar Induction for Minimalist Grammars using Variational Bayesian Inference : A Technical ReportEva Portelance, Amelia Bruno, Daniel Harasim et al.
The following technical report presents a formal approach to probabilistic minimalist grammar parameter estimation. We describe a formalization of a minimalist grammar. We then present an algorithm for the application of variational Bayesian inference to this formalization.
