The processing of subject pronouns in highly proficient L2 speakers of English
Glossa, 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.

Improving Japanese Zero Pronoun Resolution by Global Word Sense Disambiguation [PDF]
, 2004 This paper proposes unsupervised word sense disambiguation based on automatically constructed case frames and its incorporation into our zero pronoun resolution system. The word sense disambiguation is applied to verbs and nouns.

Agentivity drives real-time pronoun resolution : Evidence from German er and der [PDF]
, 2016 We report two experiments on the referential resolution of the German subject pronoun er and the demonstrative der (‘he’). Using the visual world eye-tracking paradigm, we examined the effects of grammatical role, thematic role and the information status

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 ...

Anaphora resolution and reanalysis during L2 sentence processing: evidence from the visual world paradigm [PDF]
, 2016 In a visual world paradigm study, we manipulated gender congruence between a subject pronoun and two antecedents to investigate whether L2 learners with a null subject first language (L1) acquire and process overt subject pronouns in a non-null subject ...

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.
