An Algorithm for Anaphora Resolution in Spanish Texts [PDF]
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 and preferences for different types of pronominal expressions, and we document in detail the ...

An architecture for anaphora resolution [PDF]
In this paper, we describe the pronominal anaphora resolution module of Lucy, a portable English understanding system. The design of this module was motivated by the observation that, although there exist many theories of anaphora resolution, no one of these theories is complete.

Anaphora resolution has proven to be a very difficult problem; it requires the integrated application of syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic knowledge. This paper examines the hypothesis that instead of attempting to construct a monolithic method for resolving anaphora, the combination of multiple strategies, each exploiting a different knowledge source,

Prosody and the resolution of pronominal anaphora [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the acoustic prosodic marking of demonstrative and personal pronouns in task-oriented dialog. Although it has been hypothesized that acoustic marking affects pronoun resolution, we find that the prosodic information extracted from the data is not sufficient to predict antecedent type reliably.

The processing of subject pronouns in highly proficient L2 speakers of English
Studies on second language (L2) anaphora resolution have mainly focused on learners of null-subject languages, demonstrating that L2 speakers show residual indeterminacy in the L2 referential choice, even at the highest levels of proficiency.

Entailment and anaphora resolution in RTE3 [PDF]
We present VENSES, a linguistically-based approach for semantic inference which is built around a neat division of labour between two main components: a grammatically-driven subsystem which is responsible for the level of predicate-arguments well-formedness and works on the output of a deep parser that produces augmented head-dependency structures.

Offline interpretation of subject pronouns by native speakers of Spanish
Research on anaphora resolution reveals that speakers’ interpretation of pronominal subjects is often inconsistent, with results differing in terms of the antecedent preferences of these speakers and the factors that affect these preferences. The present
