| "text": "Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG; Steedman, 2000) has been increasingly employed with success for a wide range of NLP problems. An important factor in its success is that its flexible treatment of word order and constituency enable it to employ a compact lexicon, making it easier to acquire lexicalized grammars automatically (Artzi and Zettlemoyer, 2013) and to train machinelearned models that generalize well (Clark and Curran, 2007; Lee et al., 2016) . However, its word order flexibility can be problematic for linguistic phenomena where linear order plays a key role. In particular, linear order effects can be problematic for Steedman's (2012) treatment of negative polarity items (NPIs) as well as for implementing a treatment of balanced punctuation that attempts to track the status of the right periphery, as White & Rajkumar (2008) have previously shown.", |

| "text": "Barker & Shan's continuized grammars make crucial use of continuations, a technique developed in programming language semantics to control and analyze evaluation order, and which enables the analyses presented here. Charlow's dynamic semantics implements an alternative to Steedman's (2012) approach to the exceptional scope of indefinites that fits naturally with ongoing work in dynamic semantics. Meanwhile, by combining the Barker-Shan-Charlow approach with Steedman's CCG for predicate-argument structure, the resulting system respects Steedman's Principle of Adjacency, making it attractive for computational implementations. As such, we suggest that the framework offers a promising starting point for work that tackles complex linguistic phenomena in a practical way. A prototype implementation verifying the analyses accompanies the paper. 1 earlier treatments in categorial grammar (Dowty, 1994; Bernardi, 2002) in requiring negative polarity items to be licensed by an outscoping downward-entailing quantifier, negation or other licensor (e.g. verbs such as deny, which lexically incorporate negation). For example, Figure 1a shows how CCG can account for the difference between No one enjoyed anything, where the NPI anything is outscoped by its licensor no one, and *Kim enjoyed anything, where the NPI anything has no licensor. 2 In Steedman's analysis, S indicates neutral polarity, while S \u2022 indicates reverse polarity. The NPI anything combines with the verb enjoyed on its left to yield S \u2022 \\NP , the category for a verb phrase with reverse polarity. 3 The downward-entailing quantifier no one here combines with an inverted-polarity VP on the right to yield S , the category for a clause which again has neutral polarity. Root sentences are required to have positive polarity, which is compatible with neutral polarity. With *Kim enjoyed anything, by contrast, the subject Kim does not license NPIs, and thus the derivation ends with S \u2022 , which is incompatible with root-level positive polarity.", |

To make it easier to reason about continuized grammars, Barker & Shan devised the \"tower\" notation illustrated in Figure 2 . 5 For example, no one has a tower category with NP on the bottom and two Ss on top; reading counterclockwise from the bottom, this category represents a constituent that acts locally as an NP , takes scope over an S , and returns an S . Here S represents the subtype of negative clauses, while S is again a neutral clause. 6 The semantics is k.\u00ac9y.ky, a function from a continuation k of type e ! t to a quantified expression of type t. A continuized meaning of this form can be abbreviated by representing the location where the continuation argument applies with [ ] and putting the argument to the continuation on the bottom of the tower, as shown.", |

In doing so, however, they observe that CCG's flexible treatment of word order is problematic when it comes to implementing a grammar-based approach to balanced punctuation, for reasons we review in this section. (Nunberg 1990 gives extensive arguments that writers have implicit knowledge of the grammar of punctuation that is comparable in intricacy to their grammatical knowledge of spoken language. Whether one agrees with Nunberg or not, there is practical value to grammars that treat punctuation with sufficient precision to satisfy the needs of parsing and generation.) The original CCGbank corpus does not have lexical categories for punctuation; instead, punctuation marks carry categories derived from their part of speech tags and form part of a binary rule. It is assumed that there are no dependencies between words and punctuation marks and that the result of punctuation rules is the same as the non-punctuation category. Binary rules of this kind miss out on many linguistic generalizations, most glaringly the presence of manda-Kim gave no one anything ", |

| "text": "if A : a The literature discusses various means to address the issue of overgeneration: absorption rules (Nunberg, 1990) , syntactic features (Doran, 1998) and (Briscoe, 1994) and semantic features (White, 2006) . Nunberg (1990) argues that text adjuncts introduced by punctuation marks have an underlying representation where these adjuncts have marks on either side. They attain their surface form when a set of presentation rules are applied. This approach ensures that all sentence medial cases like (1a) and (1e) above are generated correctly, while unacceptable examples (1b) and (1f) would not be generated at all. Example (1c) would at first be generated as (1d): to deal with such sentences, where two points happen to coincide, Nunberg posits an implicit point which is absorbed by the adjacent point. Absorption occurs according to the \"strength\" of the two points. Strength is determined according to the Point Absorption Hierarchy, which ranks commas lower than dashes, semi-colons, colons and periods. As White (1995) observes, from a generation-only perspective, it makes sense to generate text adjuncts which are always balanced and post-process the output to delete lower ranked points, as absorption uses relatively simple rules that operate independently of the hierarchy of the constituents. However, using this approach for parsing would involve a preprocessing step which inserts commas into possible edges of possible constituents, as described in (Forst and Kaplan, 2006) . To avoid this considerable complication, Briscoe (1994) has argued for developing declarative approaches involving syntactic features in bi-directional systems, with no deletions or insertions of punctuation marks. (White and Rajkumar, 2008) itive commas. Here, the unbalanced appositive comma has the category in (2a) where the comma selects as argument the appositive NP and converts it to a nominal modifier. For balanced appositives, the comma in (2b) selects the appositive NP and the balancing comma to form a nominal modifier. As these categories show, this approach involves the incorporation of syntactic features for punctuation (bal and end) into atomic categories so that certain combinations are blocked. To ensure proper appositive balancing sentence finally, the rightmost element in the sentence should transmit these features to the clause level, which the full stop can then check for the presence of right-edge punctuation; elsewhere, categories should ensure that their leftward arguments are balanced. The approach ensures that (1a)-(1f) above are all correctly generated or blocked.", |

In the next section, we'll see that continuized CCG makes it possible to successfully incorporate such constraints into the grammar itself. The approach presented in Section 3 to using the continuation layer to handle linear order constraints on NPI licensing can be generalized to also successfully track punctuation at the right periphery. As shown earlier, the category at the top left of the tower can be used to impose requirements on the preceding context, while the top right category can track information made available to the subsequent context. The idea for handling balanced punctuation is illustrated in Figure 8 , where a bad comma-period sequence is correctly blocked despite the use of backwards crossed composition for heavy-NP shift. Tower categories, such as the one for Sandy, CEO,, ordinarily require their leftward context to have balanced punctuation, as shown with the top-left category S bal ; the phrase as a whole is balanced and ends with a comma, as the category S bal comma attests. Punctuation information on tower categories is propagated through the continuation layer via the Combination, Lift Left and Lift Right rules; 11 here, the direct object NP punctuation info is propagated up to the clausal level. At this point, combination with the full stop is blocked, since the full stop seeks a tower on the left that has no end punctuation, but the clause ends in a comma. 12 With relative clauses (not 11 The Lift and Lift Left rules are modified to require balanced punctuation on the left.", |

The Set monad models non-deterministic choices as sets, facilitating a non-deterministic treatment of indefinites.

The \u2318 function injects values into the monad, simply yielding a singleton set consisting of the input item paired with the input state.

In particular, we have shown for the first time that linear order effects can be problematic for Steedman's (2012) treatment of negative polarity items, and shown that the enhanced control over evaluation order afforded by Continuized CCG (Barker & Shan, 2014) makes it possible to formulate improved analyses of NPIs that account for these effects quite naturally even in a system that combines Steedman's CCG for predicate-argument structure with Barker & Shan's for quantification. In addition, after reviewing how CCG's flexible treatment of word order and constituency are problematic for implementing constraints on balanced punctuation in the style of Briscoe (1994) , we have shown how to generalize the approach to encoding evaluation order constraints to properly track punctuation information at the right boundary. As a bonus, we have also taken advantage of Charlow's monadic semantics to implement a novel approach to NP appositives that arguably improves upon Martin's (2016) treatment. Natural next steps for future work include tackling order effects found with binding and crossover as well as exploring the use of machine-learned models to guide the search for derivations.", |

As Barker & Shan observe, the explicit lifting step seen in Figure 2a can be integrated with the scopal combination step, as shown in the other recursively defined rules in Figure 3b, thereby avoiding an infinite regress when applying the lifting rule. Figure 2b shows how Lift Left (\"L) can No one enjoyed anything", |
