Highly lexicalized, constraint-based grammar
It is a type of phrase structure grammar, as opposed to a dependency grammar, and it is the immediate successor to generalized phrase structure grammar.

Model-theoretic grammar
1 linksModel-theoretic grammars, also known as constraint-based grammars, contrast with generative grammars in the way they define sets of sentences: they state constraints on syntactic structure rather than providing operations for generating syntactic objects.

Feature structure
1 linksIn phrase structure grammars, such as generalised phrase structure grammar, head-driven phrase structure grammar and lexical functional grammar, a feature structure is essentially a set of attribute–value pairs.
ID/LP grammar
1 linksID/LP Grammars are a subset of Phrase Structure Grammars, differentiated from other formal grammars by distinguishing between immediate dominance (ID) and linear precedence (LP) constraints.
ID/LP Grammars are a subset of Phrase Structure Grammars, differentiated from other formal grammars by distinguishing between immediate dominance (ID) and linear precedence (LP) constraints.
The idea first came to prominence as part of Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar; the ID/LP Grammar approach is also used in head-driven phrase structure grammar, lexical functional grammar, and other unification grammars.
