On the application side, (log-)linear parsing models have the potential to supplant the currently dominant lexicalized PCFG models for parsing by allowing much richer feature sets and simpler smoothing, while avoiding the label bias problem that may have hindered earlier classifier-based parsers (Ratnaparkhi, 1997).
work in that direction has so far addressed only parse reranking (Collins and Duffy, 2002;Riezler et al., 2002).
