COMPARING PRONOUN RESOLUTION ALGORITHMS
Computational Intelligence, 2007 This paper discusses the comparative evaluation of five well‐known pronoun resolution algorithms conducted with the help of a purpose‐built tool for consistent evaluation in anaphora resolution, termed the evaluation workbench. The workbench enables the evaluation and comparison of pronoun resolution algorithms on the basis of the same preprocessing ...

Semantic accessibility and interference in pronoun resolution [PDF]
Glossa PsycholinguisticsThe general view in syntactic literature is that binding constraints can make antecedents syntactically inaccessible. However, several studies showed that antecedents which are ruled out by syntactic binding constraints still influence online processing ...

An expectation maximization approach to pronoun resolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the Ninth Conference on Computational Natural Language Learning - CONLL '05, 2005 We propose an unsupervised Expectation Maximization approach to pronoun resolution. The system learns from a fixed list of potential antecedents for each pronoun. We show that unsupervised learning is possible in this context, as the performance of our system is comparable to supervised methods.

Bootstrapping path-based pronoun resolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Computational Linguistics and the 44th annual meeting of the ACL - ACL '06, 2006 We present an approach to pronoun resolution based on syntactic paths. Through a simple bootstrapping procedure, we learn the likelihood of coreference between a pronoun and a candidate noun based on the path in the parse tree between the two entities.

A Tableau Calculus for Pronoun Resolution
, 1999 We present a tableau calculus for reasoning in fragments of natural language. We focus on the problem of pronoun resolution and the way in which it complicates automated theorem proving for natural language processing. A method for explicitly manipulating contextual information during deduction is proposed, where pronouns are resolved against this ...

EEG-Based Decoding of Neural Mechanisms Underlying Impersonal Pronoun Resolution
AlgorithmsPronoun resolution is essential for language comprehension, yet the neural mechanisms underlying this process remain poorly characterized. Here, we investigate the neural dynamics of impersonal pronoun processing using electroencephalography combined ...

Pronoun Prediction with Latent Anaphora Resolution [PDF]
Proceedings of the First Conference on Machine Translation: Volume 2,
Shared Task Papers, 2016 This paper describes the UU-Hardmeier submissions to the WMT 2016 shared task on cross-lingual pronoun prediction. Our model is a system combination of two different approaches, one based on a neural network with latent anaphora resolution and the other one on ann-gram model with an additional dependency on the source pronoun.

Crossover as an early filter to pronoun resolution in English
Glossa PsycholinguisticsA key question for psycholinguistic research is understanding how and when structure-sensitive constraints guide the real-time resolution of pronouns. In this study, we examined the processing of pronouns in crossover configurations, where a wh-operator ...

Reflexive pronoun resolution in Portuguese: testing similarity-based interference
Frontiers in Language SciencesIn the present study, we test whether, during reflexive pronoun resolution, structural cues guide both the language processing system and its underlying memory-based mechanisms or whether the latter might be influenced by non-structural cues as well ...

Neural Mechanisms of Pronoun Resolution [PDF]
, 2019 To understand how pronoun resolution is implemented in the brain, one first step is to describe the algorithm that performs the task. This thesis evaluated three computational models for pronoun resolution against brain activity time-locked at every third person pronoun during naturalistic story listening.
