Large-Scale Induction and Evaluation of Lexical Resources from the Penn-II Treebank
In this paper we present a methodology for extracting subcategorisation frames based on an automatic LFG f-structure annotation algorithm Penn-II Treebank. We extract abstract syn...

Error Mining for Wide-Coverage Grammar Engineering
Parsing systems which rely on hand-coded linguistic descriptions can only perform adequately in as far as these descriptions are correct and complete. The paper describes an error...

Multi-Engine Machine Translation with Voted Language Model
The paper describes a particular approach to multiengine machine translation (MEMT), where we make use of voted language models to selectively combine translation outputs from mul...

Optimizing Typed Feature Structure Grammar Parsing through Non-Statistical Indexing
This paper introduces an indexing method based on static analysis of grammar rules and type signatures for typed feature structure grammars (TFSGs). The static analysis tries to p...

A Mention-Synchronous Coreference Resolution Algorithm Based On the Bell Tree
This paper proposes a new approach for coreference resolution which uses the Bell tree to represent the search space and casts the coreference resolution problem as finding the be...
