Predicate Preserving Parsing

We present a unique approach to knowledge extraction from texts by a method of natural language analysis which preserves the predicate till the end. The system thus named Predicate Preserving Parser (PPP) performs morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis synchronously. This approach helps in highly accurate analysis of sentences. The analysis produces a semantic net like structure expressed by means of Universal Networking Language (UNL)a recently proposed Interlingua. The working of the PPP is demonstrated through the analysis of English and Hindi sentences. Varied and complex phenomena of both the language have been tackled. Use of lexical resources like the WordNet facilitates the handling of language phenomena.
