متن کاملImproving Dependency Parsing Using Sentence Clause Charts
We propose a method for improving the dependency parsing of complex sentences. This method assumes segmentation of input sentences into clauses and does not require to re-train a parser of one’s choice. We represent a sentence clause structure using clause charts that provide a layer of embedding for each clause in the sentence. Then we formulate a parsing strategy as a two-stage process where ...
متن کاملSentence Classification and Clause Detection for Croatian
We present a method for classifying Croatian sentences by structure and detecting independent and dependent clauses within these sentences and provide its evaluation. A prototype system applying the method was implemented by using the NooJ linguistic development environment, both for purposes of this experiment and for further utilization in a prototype rule-based chunking and shallow parsing s...
