LKB parser

[Ann Copestake]

the particular variety of chart parser used by default in the current
version of the LKB system is described in

Oepen, Stephan and Ulrich Callmeier, 2000. Measure for measure: Parser
cross-fertilization. Towards increased component comparability and
exchange. In Proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Parsing
Technologies.

incidentally, whether chart parsing is properly described as Earley's
algorithm has been one of those questions that caused some controversy
- if you look at the background section in Jurafsky and Martin's book,
you'll see a lot of parallel invention went on,
