G-TUNA: a corpus of referring expressions in German, including duration information
نویسندگان
چکیده
Corpora of referring expressions elicited from human participants in a controlled environment are an important resource for research on automatic referring expression generation. We here present G-TUNA, a new corpus of referring expressions for German. Using images of furniture as stimuli similarly to the TUNA and D-TUNA corpora, our corpus extends on these corpora by providing data collected in a simulated driving dual-task setting, and additionally provides exact duration annotations for the spoken referring expressions. This corpus will hence allow researchers to analyze the interaction between referring expression length and speech rate, under conditions where the listener is under high vs. low cognitive load.

The D-TUNA Corpus: A Dutch Dataset for the Evaluation of Referring Expression Generation Algorithms
In this paper, we present the D-TUNA corpus, which is the first semantically annotated corpus of referring expressions in Dutch. Its primary function is to evaluate and improve the performance of REG algorithms. Such algorithms are computational models that automatically generate referring expressions by computing how a specific target can be identified to an addressee by distinguishing it from...

The TUNA-REG’09 Challenge was one of the shared-task evaluation competitions at Generation Challenges 2009. TUNAREG’09 used data from the TUNA Corpus of paired representations of entities and human-authored referring expressions. The shared task was to create systems that generate referring expressions for entities given representations of sets of entities and their properties. Four teams submi...

The TUNA Challenge was a set of three shared tasks at REG’08, all of which used data from the TUNA Corpus. The three tasks covered attribute selection for referring expressions (TUNA-AS), realisation (TUNA-R) and end-toend referring expression generation (TUNAREG). 8 teams submitted a total of 33 systems to the three tasks, with an additional submission to the Open Track. The evaluation used a ...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Model of Referring Expressions for Complex Objects
This paper presents a probabilistic model both for generation and understanding of referring expressions. This model introduces the concept of parts of objects, modelling the necessity to deal with the characteristics of separate parts of an object in the referring process. This was ignored or implicit in previous literature. Integrating this concept into a probabilistic formulation, the model ...
