Information about Dependency Grammar
Dependency grammar (DG) is a class of syntactic theories developed by Lucien Tesnière. It is distinct from phrase structure grammars, as it lacks phrasal nodes. Structure is determined by the relation between a word (a head) and its dependents. Dependency grammars are not defined by a specific word order, and are thus well suited to languages with freer word order, such as Czech.
Algebraic syntax and Extensible Dependency Grammar are types of dependency grammar. Link grammar is similar to dependency grammar, but link grammar includes directionality in the relations between words, as well as lacking a head-dependent relationship.
Operator Grammar differs from other dependency grammars in that it is also a theory of semantics (information). This theory posits a large collection of reductions (small transformations) that map dependency structures into compact, variant forms. It also reverses the direction of dependency, by having operators (e.g. verbs) depend on their arguments.

Phrase structure grammar is a term usually used as a synonym for Context-free grammar. However, it is not a precise term, and it may also be used to refer to the other classes of grammar in the Chomsky hierarchy that are more powerful than regular grammars.

Recursive categorical syntax is an algebraic theory of syntax developed by Michael Brame as an alternative to transformational-generative grammar. Brame formulated an algebra (technically a nonassociative groupoid with inverses) of lexical items (words and phrases), or lexes for

Link grammar (LG) is a theory of syntax by Davy Temperley and Daniel Sleator which builds relations between pairs of words, rather than constructing constituents in a tree-like hierarchy. There are two basic parameters: directionality and distance.

Operator Grammar is a mathematical theory of human language that explains how language carries information. This theory is the culmination of the life work of Zellig Harris, with major publications toward the end of the last century.
