Scoring Both Directions: LLMs realize the MRS they cannot reliably parse
The English Resource Grammar (ERG) is a hand-written computational grammar of English. Given a sentence, its processor, ACE, produces a formal meaning representation called Minimal Recursion Semantics (MRS): a graph of the sentence's predicates and their arguments. The grammar is bidirectional and can also turn an MRS back into an English sentence. \citet{hajdik2019} used the ERG's treebank to build a benchmark for that generation task, MRS to text, and trained sequence-to-sequence models to solve it. The parsing task, text to MRS, can be tested on the same sentences. We reconstruct their 10K-sentence test split, and score two large language models, Claude Sonnet~4.5 and Claude Opus~5, in...
