Abstract. This paper describes a method of adapting a domain-independent HPSG parser to a biomedical domain. Without modifying the grammar and the probabilistic model of the origin...
Action-based dependency parsing, also known as deterministic dependency parsing, has often been regarded as a time efficient parsing algorithm while its parsing accuracy is a littl...
This paper investigates using prosodic information in the form of ToBI break indexes for parsing spontaneous speech. We revisit two previously studied approaches, one that hurt pa...
We propose a general method for reranker construction which targets choosing the candidate with the least expected loss, rather than the most probable candidate. Different approac...
A notable gap in research on statistical dependency parsing is a proper conditional probability distribution over nonprojective dependency trees for a given sentence. We exploit t...
