Error-repair Dependency Parsing for Ungrammatical Texts
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a new dependency parsing scheme which jointly parses a sentence and repairs grammatical errors by extending the non-directional transitionbased formalism of Goldberg and Elhadad (2010) with three additional actions: SUBSTITUTE, DELETE, INSERT. Because these actions may cause an infinite loop in derivation, we also introduce simple constraints that ensure the parser termination. We evaluate our model with respect to dependency accuracy and grammaticality improvements for ungrammatical sentences, demonstrating the robustness and applicability of our scheme.

REALEC learner treebank: annotation principles and evaluation of automatic parsing
The paper presents a Universal Dependencies (UD) annotation scheme for a learner English corpus. The REALEC dataset consists of essays written in English by Russian-speaking university students in the course of general English. The original corpus is manually annotated for learners’ errors and gives information on the error span, error type, and the possible correction of the mistake provided b...
متن کاملAn improved joint model: POS tagging and dependency parsing
Dependency parsing is a way of syntactic parsing and a natural language that automatically analyzes the dependency structure of sentences, and the input for each sentence creates a dependency graph. Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging is a prerequisite for dependency parsing. Generally, dependency parsers do the POS tagging task along with dependency parsing in a pipeline mode. Unfortunately, in pipel...

is thesis presents several contributions oriented towards the common goal of bridging the gap between Sikkel’s theory of parsing schemata and the practical aspects of natural language parser development. On the practical side, a compiler is presented that can be used to automatically generate an ecient implementation of a parser from its formal description in the form of a parsing schema. is s...
متن کاملUniversal Dependencies for Learner English
We introduce the Treebank of Learner English (TLE), the first publicly available syntactic treebank for English as a Second Language (ESL). The TLE provides manually annotated POS tags and Universal Dependency (UD) trees for 5,124 sentences from the Cambridge First Certificate in English (FCE) corpus. The UD annotations are tied to a pre-existing error annotation of the FCE, whereby full syntac...
متن کاملThe Effect of Multiple Grammatical Errors on Processing Non-Native Writing
In this work, we estimate the deterioration of NLP processing given an estimate of the amount and nature of grammatical errors in a text. From a corpus of essays written by English-language learners, we extract ungrammatical sentences, controlling the number and types of errors in each sentence. We focus on six categories of errors that are commonly made by English-language learners, and consid...
