Abstract

The learning of stochastic context-free grammars from corpus using genetic algorithm is explored in this work. Minimum description length principle is used for deriving the fitness function of the genetic algorithm. Stochastic context-free grammars are evolved by optimizing the parameters of the covering grammars. I provide details of my fitness function for grammars and present the results of a number of experiments in learning grammars for a variety of languages.
