Does anyone know of work done in the generation of grammars from sets of
sentences in corpora where the corpora may contain anything from several
hundred to several thousand sentences? The generated grammar should deal
correctly with all sentences in the corpus it is generated from.

Thanks for any help in providing references or pointers.
