Integration of Sequence of Computational Modules Dedicated to Text Analysis: A Combinatory Typed Approach

In informational terms, a module dedicated to process information always has specific inputs and outputs. It describes a particular process constrained by specific rules. A processing chain can be a serial combination and/or a parallel combination of such modules. Thus, in an architecture of language engineering, each processing chain becomes a particular instantiation of all possible paths. A processing chain is built from a choice of modules underlying tasks that an engineer wants to apply to the text. In our paper we will present our theoretical model of logical representation of the processing chains, based on combinatory logic and a formal approach based on categorial grammars and applicative grammar, along with many cases of modules configurations.
