From Dependency to Compositionality: A Neurosymbolic Lifting of LLM Outputs via Combinatory Categorial Grammar· 从依赖到组合性：LLM 输出的神经符号提升

Large language models (LLMs) generate fluent text by incrementally predicting the next token from a prefix. Critics in the generative tradition argue that such systems lack genuine grammar; influential replies from the dependency-grammar perspective hold that LLM behavior is well described by local head-dependent structure built word by word. We argue that a sharper observation has been overlooked: the prefix-driven, type-completing dynamics of autoregressive generation align closely with the incremental processing model that Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG) was originally designed to support. On this basis we propose a neurosymbolic framework in which LLM outputs are lifted into typed compositional derivations -- not claiming that LLMs implement CCG internally, but that their outputs
