• Let {D-CONNECT(i, j, k) : 0 ≤ i < j ≤ n; 0 ≤ k ≤ n} be O(n 3 ) factors coordinating any number of dependency syntax Link(i, j) variables with representational variables on the end task, multiplying in 1 to the model score unless all variables are on, in which case it multiplies a connective potential φ derived from its features.
it functions logically as a soft NAND factor.
