I would suggest to have a look at the site, you may also look for such names as Sylvain Salvati, Philippe de Groote, Gerald Penn, and keywords abstract categorical gramma= rs, parsing with categorical grammars... By the way, Sylvain told me that now there are uses for coherence theorems from category theory in parsing.
