  abstract  = {We present an analysis of parser performance on speech data, comparing word
	type and token frequency distributions with written data, and evaluating parse
	accuracy by length of input string. We find that parser performance tends to
	deteriorate with increasing length of string, more so for spoken than for
	written texts. We train an alternative parsing model with added speech data and
	demonstrate improvements in accuracy on speech-units, with no deterioration in
	performance on written text.},
