MSTParser Model Interpolation for Multi-Source Delexicalized Transfer
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce interpolation of trained MSTParser models as a resource combination method for multi-source delexicalized parser transfer. We present both an unweighted method, as well as a variant in which each source model is weighted by the similarity of the source language to the target language. Evaluation on the HamleDT treebank collection shows that the weighted model interpolation performs comparably to weighted parse tree combination method, while being computationally much less demanding.

Parsing Natural Language Sentences by Semi-supervised Methods
We present our work on semi-supervised parsing of natural language sentences, focusing on multi-source crosslingual transfer of delexicalized dependency parsers. We first evaluate the influence of treebank annotation styles on parsing performance, focusing on adposition attachment style. Then, we present KLcpos3 , an empirical language similarity measure, designed and tuned for source parser we...
متن کاملA Representation Learning Framework for Multi-Source Transfer Parsing
Cross-lingual model transfer has been a promising approach for inducing dependency parsers for lowresource languages where annotated treebanks are not available. The major obstacles for the model transfer approach are two-fold: 1. Lexical features are not directly transferable across languages; 2. Target languagespecific syntactic structures are difficult to be recovered. To address these two c...
متن کاملKLcpos3 - a Language Similarity Measure for Delexicalized Parser Transfer
We present KLcpos3 , a language similarity measure based on Kullback-Leibler divergence of coarse part-of-speech tag trigram distributions in tagged corpora. It has been designed for multilingual delexicalized parsing, both for source treebank selection in single-source parser transfer, and for source treebank weighting in multi-source transfer. In the selection task, KLcpos3 identifies the bes...
متن کاملTarget Language Adaptation of Discriminative Transfer Parsers
We study multi-source transfer parsing for resource-poor target languages; specifically methods for target language adaptation of delexicalized discriminative graph-based dependency parsers. We first show how recent insights on selective parameter sharing, based on typological and language-family features, can be applied to a discriminative parser by carefully decomposing its model features. We...
متن کاملMulti-Source Transfer of Delexicalized Dependency Parsers
We present a simple method for transferring dependency parsers from source languages with labeled training data to target languages without labeled training data. We first demonstrate that delexicalized parsers can be directly transferred between languages, producing significantly higher accuracies than unsupervised parsers. We then use a constraint driven learning algorithm where constraints a...
