This approach, which underlies the Description Theory of (Marcus et al. 1983) has been integrated in (Vijay-Shanker 1992) with a pure unification approach to Lexicalized Tree-Adjoining Grammars (Joshi et al.\ 1975, Schabes 1990). We generalize Description Theory by integrating semantic information, that is, we propose to tackle both syntactic and semantic underspecification using descriptions.
