Grew

Graph Rewriting

Functional Description

Grew is a Graph Rewriting tool dedicated to applications in NLP. Grew takes into account confluent and non-confluent graph rewriting and it includes several mechanisms that help to use graph rewriting in the context of NLP applications (built-in notion of feature structures, parametrization of rules with lexical information).

In 2016, Grew was used in different applications. The Graph Rewriting System presented in [1] was improved and is used in the preprocessing of data in the ZombiLingo project (see 6.3.1). It was also extensively used in the Universal Dependencies project for improving the French sub-corpus.
