Bootstrapping Statistical Processing Into A Rule-Based Natural Language Parser

نویسنده

  • Stephen D. Richardson
چکیده

This paper describes a "bootstrapping" method which uses a broad-coverage, rule-based parser to compute probabilities while parsing an untagged corpus of NL text, and which then incorporates those probabilities into the processing of the same parser as it analyzes new text. Results are reported which show that this method can significantly improve the speed and accuracy of the parser without requiring the use of annotated corpora or human-supervised training during the computation of probabilities.

Rule Based Semantic Parsing Approach for Kashmiri Language

This paper describes a rule based semantic parsing approach for Kashmiri language(multilingual language) .A rule based semantic parser relies on the WORDNET and FRAMENET available for the language. Semantic parsing involves mapping of natural language (NL) sentence into a complete formal meaning representation (MR) in a meaning representation language. Semantic parsing increases the level of un...

ارائۀ راهکاری قاعده‌مند جهت تبدیل خودکار درخت تجزیۀ نحوی وابستگی به درخت تجزیۀ نحوی ساخت‌سازه‌ای برای زبان فارسی

In this paper, an automatic method in converting a dependency parse tree into an equivalent phrase structure one, is introduced for the Persian language. In first step, a rule-based algorithm was designed. Then, Persian specific dependency-to-phrase structure conversion rules merged to the algorithm. Subsequently, the Persian dependency treebank with about 30,000 sentences was used as an input ...

Feature Engineering in Persian Dependency Parser

Dependency parser is one of the most important fundamental tools in the natural language processing, which extracts structure of sentences and determines the relations between words based on the dependency grammar. The dependency parser is proper for free order languages, such as Persian. In this paper, data-driven dependency parser has been developed with the help of phrase-structure parser fo...

Creating a Natural Logic Inference System with Combinatory Categorial Grammar

This dissertation presents an integrated system for producing Natural Logic inferences, which are used in a wide variety of natural language understanding tasks. Natural Logic is the process of creating valid inferences by making incremental edits to natural language expressions with respect to a universal monotonicity calculus, without resorting to logical representation of the expressions (us...

The Benefit of Stochastic PP Attachment to a Rule-Based Parser

To study PP attachment disambiguation as a benchmark for empirical methods in natural language processing it has often been reduced to a binary decision problem (between verb or noun attachment) in a particular syntactic configuration. A parser, however, must solve the more general task of deciding between more than two alternatives in many different contexts. We combine the attachment predicti...
