Challenge: a new supertagging-based parser for linear context-free rewriting systems is developed for discontinuous constituents . discontinuous constituencies span non-contiguous sets of positions in a sentence, and can be modelled by CFG .
Approach: They propose a supertagging-based parser for linear context-free rewriting systems . they propose an efficient procedure which induces a lexical LCFRS from any discontinuous treebank .
Outcome: The proposed method outperforms previous LCFRS-based parsers in accuracy and speed by a wide margin.

Challenge: Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG) parsers operate as a pipeline with a large search space of complex 'supertags' .
Approach: They propose to use CCG supertags to generate CCG categories that have never been seen in training and to use tree-structured prediction to account for their internal structure.
Outcome: The proposed model recovers a fraction of the long-tail supertags while approximating the state of the art in overall tag accuracy with fewer parameters.
