93 Comparisons Noncanonical Unambiguity Regular Unambiguity RU( ) Bounded-length detection schemes LR(k) and LR-Regular (LR(Π)) Horizontal and vertical ambiguity (HVRU( ))
94 Bounded-length detection [Gorn, 1963, Cheung and Uzgalis, 1995, Schröer, 2001, Jampana, 2005] Noncanonical Unambiguity generate sentences not conservative prefix m prevents from false positives in sentences of length < m need to generate a 2n +1 to find G n 4 ambiguous, but G n 4 NU(item 0) S A B n a, A Aaa a, B 1 aa, B 2 B 1 B 1,..., B n B n 1 B n 1 (G n 4 )
95 LR(k) and LR-Regular Noncanonical Unambiguity [Knuth, 1965, Hunt III et al., 1975, Čulik and Cohen, 1973, Heilbrunner, 1983] conservative tests define item Π s.t. LR(Π) NU(item Π ) need a LR(2 n ) test to prove G n 3 unambiguous, but G n 3 NU(item 0) S A B n, A Aaa a, B 1 aa, B 2 B 1 B 1,..., B n B n 1 B n 1 (G n 3 )
96 Implementation For the whole SML grammar: Experimental Results conflicts in the LALR(1) parser sml.y: conflicts: 223 shift/reduce, 35 reduce/reduce Our tool: 89 potential ambiguities with LR(1) precision detected For the SML grammar fragment: 2 potential ambiguities with LR(0) precision detected: (match -> mrule., match -> match. mrule ) (match -> match. mrule, match -> match mrule. ) NU(item 1 ) correctly identifies 87% of our unambiguous grammars 73% of the non-lalr(1) ones
97 Summary Experimental Results conservative ambiguity detection provably better than several other techniques also experimentally better
98 Conclusion Closing Comments Main issues in parser development: nondeterminism ambiguity in particular Deterministic parsers for larger classes of grammars Ambiguity detection algorithm
99 Directions for Future Work Future Work Linear time parsing for NU( ) grammars? Improved implementation Noncanonical languages Regular approximations
