Postnominal Prepositional Phrase Attachment in Proteomics
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a small set of attachment heuristics for postnominal PPs occurring in full-text articles related to enzymes. A detailed analysis of the results suggests their utility for extraction of relations expressed by nominalizations (often with several attached PPs). The system achieves 82% accuracy on a manually annotated test corpus of over 3000 PPs from varied biomedical texts.

Ensemble Learning for Low Resources Prepositional Phrase Attachment
Prepositional phrase attachment is a major disambiguation problem when it’s about parsing natural language, for many languages. In this paper a low resources policy is proposed using supervised machine learning algorithms in order to resolve the disambiguation problem of prepositional phrase attachment in Modern Greek. It is a first attempt to resolve prepositional phrase attachment in Modern G...
متن کاملPrepositional Phrase Attachment Ambiguity Resolution Using Semantic Hierarchies
This paper describes a system that resolves prepositional phrase attachment ambiguity in English sentence processing. This attachment problem is ubiquitous in English text, and is widely known as a place where semantics determines syntactic form. The decision is made based on a four-tuple composed of the head verb of the verb phrase, the head noun of the noun phrase, and the preposition and hea...
متن کاملA Rule-Based and MT-Oriented Approach to Prepositional Phrase Attachment
Prepositional Phrase is the key issue in structural ambiguity. Recently, researches in corpora provide the lexical cue of prepositions with other words and the information could be used to partly resolve ambiguity resulted from prepositional phrases. Two possible attachments are considered in the literature: either noun attachment or verb attachment. In this paper, we consider the problem from ...
متن کاملStatistical Models for Unsupervised Prepositional Phrase Attachment
We present several unsupervised statistical models for the prepositional phrase attachment task that approach the accuracy of the best supervised methods for this task. Our unsupervised approach uses a heuristic based on attachment proximity and trains h'om raw text that is annotated with only part-oi;speech tags and morphologicM base forms, as opposed to attachment information. It is therefore...
متن کاملA Maximum Entropy Model for Prepositional Phrase Attachment
For this example, a human annotator's attachment decision, which for our purposes is the "correct" attachment, is to the noun phrase. We present in this paper methods for constructing statistical models for computing the probability of attachment decisions. These models could be then integrated into scoring the probability of an overall parse. We present our methods in the context of prepositio...
