Developing a hybrid NP parser
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the use of energy function optimisation in very shallow syntactic parsing. The approach can use linguistic rules and corpus-based statistics, so the strengths of both linguistic and statistical approaches to NLP can be combined in a single framework. The rules are contextual constraints for resolving syntactic ambiguities expressed as alternative tags, and the statistical language model consists of corpus-based n-grams of syntactic tags. The success of the hybrid syntactic disambiguator is evaluated against a held-out benchmark corpus. Also the contributions of the linguistic and statistical language models to the hybrid model are estimated.

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...
متن کاملStatistical parsing of noun phrase structure
Noun phrases (NPs) are a crucial part of natural language, exhibiting in many cases an extremely complex structure. However, NP structure is largely ignored by the statistical parsing field, as the most widely-used corpus is not annotated with it. This lack of gold-standard data has restricted all previous efforts to parse NPs, making it impossible to perform the supervised experiments that hav...
متن کاملDesign of a Hybrid Deterministic Parser
A deterministic parser is under development which represents a departure from traditional deterministic parsers in that it combines both symbolic and connectionist components. The connectionist component is trained either from patterns derived from the rules of a deterministic grammar. ~The development and evolution of such a hybrid architecture has lead to a parser which is superior to any kno...

Relative clauses that children understand: NP type effects on child processing Inbal Arnon Relative clauses (RCs) have been studied extensively in language acquisition and adult processing. Studies show that both children and adults find object relatives harder than subject relatives [1, 2]. Despite the similar pattern, adult difficulty is taken to reflect the increased processing demands of ob...
متن کاملEmergence of syntactic movements in a distribution- sensitive adaptive parser with multiple working memories
A self-organizing neural model of language comprehension at syntactic and semantic levels has been developed, in which the competence to process movements emerges as the result of de-synchronization among three working memories. The model consists of a self-organizing parser, a self-organizing lexicon, and a clausal working memory. The parser consists of an argument stream and a head stream, ea...
