Effects of Anaphoric Dependencies and Semantic Representations on Pronoun Interpretation
We describe three experiments that use priming methodology to investigate the nature of the abstract mental representations activated during pronoun resolution, in order to contribute to our understanding of how structural representations and semantic coherence representations influence pronoun interpretation. The results of Experiment 1 suggest that there exists a level of abstract anaphoric d...
متن کاملEffects of Clefting and Left-Dislocation on Subject and Object Pronoun Resolution in Spanish
A general principle of human communication is that we tend to make our communicative interchanges as informative as necessary but not more informative than necessary (Grice, 1975; Levinson, 1987, 1991), This principle has major consequences for communication: As discourse unfolds, when we need to refer back to a previously-mentioned entity, we use shorter and less specific forms of reference (e...
متن کاملGenerating Anaphoric Expressions: Pronoun Or Definite Description?
In order to produce coherent text. natural language generation systems must have the ability to generate pronouns in the appropriate places. In the past, pronoun usage was primarily investigated with respect to the accessibility of referents. We.argue that generating appropriate referring expressions requires looking at factors beyond accessibility. Also important are sentence boundaries, dista...
متن کاملEvaluation of pronoun resolution algorithm for Spanish dialogues
In this paper, we present an algorithm for anaphora resolution in Spanish dialogues and an evaluation of the algorithm for pronominal anaphora. The proposed algorithm uses both linguistic information and the structure of the dialogue to find the antecedent of the anaphors. The system has been evaluated on ten dialogues.
متن کاملA Bayesian Network for the resolution of non-anaphoric pronoun it
The Bayesian Network (BN) formalism has been scarcely used to model NLP problems. However this formalism has real advantages to overcome the limits of traditional knowledge-based approaches in NLP. Since anaphora resolution is a traditional problem in NLP, we propose a system based on a BN for the recognition of non-anaphoric occurences of the pronoun it and show that this formalism takes advan...
