Abstract

BART (Versley et al., 2008) is a highly modular toolkit for coreference resolution that supports state-of-the-art statistical approaches and enables efficient feature engineering. For the SemEval task 1 on Coreference Resolution, BART runs have been submitted for German, English, and Italian.

BART relies on a maximum entropy-based classifier for pairs of mentions. A novel entity-mention approach based on Semantic Trees is at the moment only supported for English.

Multilingual Anaphora Resolution

This paper presents a multilingual robust, knowledge-poor approach to resolving pronouns in technical manuals. This approach is a modification of the practical approach (Mitkov 1998a) and operates on texts pre-processed by a part-of-speech tagger. Input is ...

Special issue on computational anaphora resolution

This paper presents an algorithm for identifying noun phrase antecedents of third person personal pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, reflexive pronouns, and omitted pronouns (zero pronouns) in unrestricted Spanish texts. We define a list of constraints ...
Comparing Knowledge Sources for Nominal Anaphora Resolution

We compare two ways of obtaining lexical knowledge for antecedent selection in other-anaphora and definite noun phrase coreference. Specifically, we compare an algorithm that relies on links encoded in the manually created lexical hierarchy WordNet and ...
