A parallel algorithm for counting parse trees

A parallel algorithm for computing the number of parse trees of a given string according to a fixed context-free grammar is defined. More generally, the algorithm applies to computing the weight of a string in a weighted grammar over any semiring. The algorithm is first implemented on an arithmetic...

Popis
Shrnutí:	A parallel algorithm for computing the number of parse trees of a given string according to a fixed context-free grammar is defined. More generally, the algorithm applies to computing the weight of a string in a weighted grammar over any semiring. The algorithm is first implemented on an arithmetic circuit of depth at most 6(log2⁡n)2+O(log⁡n) and with O(n6) elements, where the constant factors in the big-O notation depend on the grammar. Then, the circuit is improved using fast matrix multiplication to use only O(n5.38) elements, while preserving depth O((log⁡n)2).
