A statistical parser designed by Eugene Charniak of Brown University widely used in NLP. It originates from A Maximum-Entropy-Inspired Parser Proceedings of NAACL-2000. It was later improved with Mark Johnson in the paper Coarse-to-Fine n-Best Parsing and MaxEnt Discriminative Reranking, Proceedings of the 43rd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2005)
