This theorem prover provides a parser for type-logical grammar, a variety of categorial grammar.
The Prolog parser is based on a bottom-up chart parser for phrase structure grammars. Empty categories are handled as usual, and hypotheticals are assumed where specified in the input, and then discharged by a Cooper-storage-like mechanism. Each rule checks that the tree that it has created is normal. The terms are displayed in beta-eta-normal form. You can check out:
