  abstract  = {In this paper, we propose a novel supervised model for parsing natural language
	sentences into their formal semantic representations.  This model treats
	sentence-to-lambda-logical expression conversion within the framework of the
	statistical machine translation with forest-to-tree algorithm. To make this
	work, we transform the lambda-logical expression structure into a form suitable
	for the mechanics of statistical machine translation and useful for modeling.
	We show that our model is able to yield new state-of-the-art results on both
	standard datasets with simple features.},
