In this paper we argue that comparative evaluation in anaphora resolution has to be performed using the same pre-processing tools and on the same set of data. The paper proposes a...
We describe an algorithm for generating multimodal referring expressions, based on empirical data. The main novelties are (1) a decision to point based on both the efficiency of p...
We propose a statistical method that finds the maximum-probability segmentation of a given text. This method does not require training data because it estimates probabilities from...
Polarized dependency (PD-) grammars are proposed as a means of efficient treatment of discontinuous constructions. PD-grammars describe two kinds of dependencies : local, explicit...
