An Algorithm for Anaphora Resolution in Spanish Texts [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Linguistics, 2021
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]

open access: yesProceedings of the second conference on Applied natural language processing -, 1988
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 [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 12th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1988
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]

open access: yesProceedings of the 18th conference on Computational linguistics -, 2000
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

open access: yesGlossa, 2020
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]

open access: yesProceedings of the ACL-PASCAL Workshop on Textual Entailment and Paraphrasing - RTE '07, 2007
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

open access: yesGlossa, 2018
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

Korean Anaphora Recognition System to Develop Healthcare Dialogue-Type Agent [PDF]

open access: yesHealthcare Informatics Research, 2014
ObjectivesAnaphora recognition is a process to identify exactly which noun has been used previously and relates to a pronoun that is included in a specific sentence later. Therefore, anaphora recognition is an essential element of a dialogue agent system.
