A Memory-Based Alternative for Connectionist Shift-Reduce Parsing

چکیده

In this paper we present memory-based learning (mbl) as a psychologically plausible model of natural language processing. Mbl shows a state-of-the-art performance on real-world language tasks, such as word pronunciation , word sense disambiguation and parsing. We compare mbl to a neural network model, SardSrn (May-berry & Miikkulainen, 1999) on a parsing task, and we show that mbl has a better generalisation accuracy on the test set. Mbl has a solid foundation in the psychological literature within theories on human categorisa-tion and reasoning. We argue that mbl is an alternative psychologically plausible model for human parsing, next to neural network models.

A corpus-based connectionist architecture for large-scale natural language parsing

We describe a deterministic shift-reduce parsing model that combines the advantages of connectionism with those of traditional symbolic models for parsing realistic sub-domains of natural language. It is a modular system that learns to annotate natural language texts with syntactic structure. The parser acquires its linguistic knowledge directly from pre-parsed sentence examples extracted from ...

Online Learning for Deterministic Dependency Parsing

Deterministic parsing has emerged as an effective alternative for complex parsing algorithms which search the entire search space to get the best probable parse tree. In this paper, we present an online large margin based training framework for deterministic parsing using Nivre’s Shift-Reduce parsing algorithm. Online training facilitates the use of high dimensional features without creating me...

Batched Shift Reduce Parsing with Lists of Vectors on CUDA

Shift Reduce Parsing is a common algorithm used in compilers and natural language processing, and can be used to compose a sequence of fixed-length vectors into a single vector of equal length. Previous versions are implemented using predetermined computational graphs that trade excessive memory and computation to minimize transfers of memory from the device to the host. In this paper, I presen...

Limited memory incremental coreference resolution

We propose an algorithm for coreference resolution based on analogy with shift-reduce parsing. By reconceptualising the task in this way, we unite rankingand cluster-based approaches to coreference resolution, which have until now been largely orthogonal. Additionally, our framework naturally lends itself to rich discourse modelling, which we use to define a series of psycholinguistically motiv...

An 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...
