چکیده

Cross-lingual dependency parsing aims to train a dependency parser for an annotation-scarce target language by exploiting annotated training data from an annotation-rich source language, which is of great importance in the field of natural language processing. In this paper, we propose to address cross-lingual dependency parsing by inducing latent crosslingual data representations via matrix completion and annotation projections on a large amount of unlabeled parallel sentences. To evaluate the proposed learning technique, we conduct experiments on a set of cross-lingual dependency parsing tasks with nine different languages. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed learning method for cross-lingual dependency parsing.

Cross-Lingual Dependency Parsing with Late Decoding for Truly Low-Resource Languages

In cross-lingual dependency annotation projection, information is often lost during transfer because of early decoding. We present an end-to-end graph-based neural network dependency parser that can be trained to reproduce matrices of edge scores, which can be directly projected across word alignments. We show that our approach to cross-lingual dependency parsing is not only simpler, but also a...

Improving the Cross-Lingual Projection of Syntactic Dependencies

This paper presents several modifications of the standard annotation projection algorithm for syntactic structures in crosslingual dependency parsing. Our approach reduces projection noise and includes efficient data sub-set selection techniques that have a substantial impact on parser performance in terms of labeled attachment scores. We test our techniques on data from the Universal Dependenc...

Cross-Lingual Dependency Parsing with Universal Dependencies and Predicted PoS Labels

This paper presents cross-lingual models for dependency parsing using the first release of the universal dependencies data set. We systematically compare annotation projection with monolingual baseline models and study the effect of predicted PoS labels in evaluation. Our results reveal the strong impact of tagging accuracy especially with models trained on noisy projected data sets. This paper...

Joint Learning of Constituency and Dependency Grammars by Decomposed Cross-Lingual Induction

Cross-lingual induction aims to acquire for one language some linguistic structures resorting to annotations from another language. It works well for simple structured predication problems such as part-of-speech tagging and dependency parsing, but lacks of significant progress for more complicated problems such as constituency parsing and deep semantic parsing, mainly due to the structural non-...

Distributed Word Representation Learning for Cross-Lingual Dependency Parsing

This paper proposes to learn languageindependent word representations to address cross-lingual dependency parsing, which aims to predict the dependency parsing trees for sentences in the target language by training a dependency parser with labeled sentences from a source language. We first combine all sentences from both languages to induce real-valued distributed representation of words under ...
