A paradigm of these generation systems relies on well-defined grammatical theories of code-mixing, and there is a lack of comparison of these theories. We present a large-scale human evaluation of two popular grammatical theories, Matrix-Embedded Language (ML) and Equivalence Constraint (EC). We compare them against three heuristic-based models and quantitatively demonstrate the effectiveness of the two grammatical theories.}, publisher = {ACL}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/comparing-grammatical-theories-of-code-mixing/}, pages = {158-167}, }
