4. the functi<strong>on</strong> P : (→) → [0, 1] maps producti<strong>on</strong>s to real numbers in the closed interval between 0<br />

and 1 in such a way that <br />

P(c → β) = 1<br />

〈c,β〉∈(→)<br />

We will <strong>of</strong>ten write the probabilities assigned to each producti<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong> the arrow: c p → β<br />

(131) The probability <strong>of</strong> a parse is the product <strong>of</strong> the probabilities <strong>of</strong> the producti<strong>on</strong>s in the parse<br />

(132) The probability <strong>of</strong> a string is the sum <strong>of</strong> the probabilities <strong>of</strong> its parses<br />
