I think this may be one of the best overviews of parsing algorithms I’ve come across!
It is concise, it points out the various approaches and their advantages/pitfalls in practice.
In general, it seems like most articles on parsing are overly pushing one approach or another… either because people have cargo culted themselves into believing whatever they learned first is best, or because they only understand one approach.
Parsers are just plain tough imo! It is a simple problem with a tricky solution space!
Complete overviews with citations like this are hard to come by in my opinion.
