Chinese Noun Phrase Coreference Resolution: Insights into the State of the Art
نویسندگان
چکیده
Compared to the amount of research on English coreference resolution, relatively little work has been done on Chinese coreference resolution. Worse still, it has been difficult to determine the state of the art in Chinese coreference resolution, owing in part to the lack of a standard evaluation dataset. The organizers of the CoNLL-2012 shared task, Modeling Unrestricted Multilingual Coreference in OntoNotes, have recently addressed this issue by providing standard training and test sets for developing and evaluating Chinese coreference resolvers. We aim to gain insights into the state of the art via extensive experimentation with our Chinese resolver, which is ranked first in the shared task on the Chinese test data.

Chinese Common Noun Phrase Resolution: An Unsupervised Probabilistic Model Rivaling Supervised Resolvers
Pronoun resolution and common noun phrase resolution are the two most challenging subtasks of coreference resolution. While a lot of work has focused on pronoun resolution, common noun phrase resolution has almost always been tackled in the context of the larger coreference resolution task. In fact, to our knowledge, there has been no attempt to address Chinese common noun phrase resolution as ...
متن کاملToward Opinion Summarization: Linking The Sources
We target the problem of linking source mentions that belong to the same entity (source coreference resolution), which is needed for creating opinion summaries. In this paper we describe how source coreference resolution can be transformed into standard noun phrase coreference resolution, apply a state-of-the-art coreference resolution approach to the transformed data, and evaluate on an availa...
متن کاملA Clustering Approach for Unsupervised Chinese Coreference Resolution
Coreference resolution is the process of identifying expressions that refer to the same entity. This paper presents a clustering algorithm for unsupervised Chinese coreference resolution. We investigate why Chinese coreference is hard and demonstrate that techniques used in coreference resolution for English can be extended to Chinese. The proposed system exploits clustering as it has advantage...
متن کاملCoreference Resolution with Reconcile
Despite the existence of several noun phrase coreference resolution data sets as well as several formal evaluations on the task, it remains frustratingly difficult to compare results across different coreference resolution systems. This is due to the high cost of implementing a complete end-to-end coreference resolution system, which often forces researchers to substitute available gold-standar...
متن کاملA Machine Learning Approach to Coreference Resolution of Noun Phrases
In this paper, we present a learning approach to coreference resolution of noun phrases in unrestricted text. The approach learns from a small, annotated corpus and the task includes resolving not just a certain type of noun phrase (e.g., pronouns) but rather general noun phrases. It also does not restrict the entity types of the noun phrases; that is, coreference is assigned whether they are o...
