LRLM is short for Left-to-Right, Longest-Match, the parsing strategy used by lt-proc of lttoolbox in analysis mode. Basically, it means: read tokens from left to right, matching the longest sequence that is in the dictionary (like "greedy" matching of regular expressions).

Another term for longest-match is Maximal Munch.
