BaseNP Chunking using ILP
نویسنده
چکیده
This is to present work on applying Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) to the task of BaseNP chunking. After ILP and NP Chunking are discussed, the experimental setup for using ILP to construct a BaseNP tagger in Prolog is described. Finally, the results are quantitatively as well as qualitatively analysed.

Text Chunking using Transformation-Based Learning
Eric Brill introduced transformation-based learning and showed that it can do part-ofspeech tagging with fairly high accuracy. The same method can be applied at a higher level of textual interpretation for locating chunks in the tagged text, including non-recursive “baseNP” chunks. For this purpose, it is convenient to view chunking as a tagging problem by encoding the chunk structure in new ta...
متن کاملImproving Scalability of Inductive Logic Programming via Pruning and Best-Effort Optimisation
Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) combines rule-based and statistical artificial intelligence methods, by learning a hypothesis comprising a set of rules given background knowledge and constraints for the search space. We focus on extending the XHAIL algorithm for ILP which is based on Answer Set Programming and we evaluate our extensions using the Natural Language Processing application of sen...
متن کاملNP chunking using ILP
This is to report the results of approaching the problem of NP chunking using Inductive Logic Programming techniques. The problem, as de-ned in (Ramshaw and Marcus, 1995), is the machine learning of rules that recognise non-recursive, base NPs in text annotated with part-of-speech tags, by tagging each word as beingìnside' oròutside' an NP. (Consecutive NPs are appropriately treated.) The same ...
متن کاملBaseNP Supersense Tagging for Japanese Texts
This paper describes baseNP supersense tagging for Japanese texts. The task extracts base noun phrases (baseNPs) from raw texts in Japanese, and labels their baseNPs with supersenses. This task has a number of applications including predicate argument structure analysis and question answering. While the definition of baseNP in English is relatively clear, its definition in Japanese has not yet ...
متن کاملText Chunking by System Combination
Tjong Kim Sang (2000) describes how a systeminternal combination of memory-based learners can be used for base noun phrase (baseNP) recognition. The idea is to generate different chunking models by using different chunk representations. Chunks can be represented with bracket structures but alternatively one can use a tagging representation which classifies words as being inside a chunk (I), out...
