Efficient matrix-encoded grammars and low latency parallelization strategies for CYK
We present a matrix encoding of contextfree grammars, motivated by hardware-level efficiency considerations. We find efficiency gains of 2.5β9 Γ for exhaustive inference and approximately 2 Γ for pruned inference, resulting in high-accuracy parsing at over 20 sentences per second. Our grammar encoding allows fine-grained parallelism during chart cell population; we present a controlled study of several methods of parallel parsing, and find nearoptimal latency reductions as core-count increases.
