Generating data as a proxy for unavailable corpus data: the contextualized sentence completion task
نویسنده
چکیده
There is much interest in using large corpora to explore predictors of the probability of higher level linguistic structures, but suitable corpora are not available for all languages and their varieties. We explore a task that uses discourse contexts from an existing corpus as prompts for sentence completion to investigate the usefulness of the method for generating data as a proxy for unavailable corpus data. Mini databases of dative and genitive structures were obtained with the method using American and Australian participants. It is shown that the databases are indeed a good proxy for corpus data.

Abstract Extracting semantic roles is one of the major steps in representing text meaning. It refers to finding the semantic relations between a predicate and syntactic constituents in a sentence. In this paper we present a semantic role labeling system for Persian, using memory-based learning model and standard features. Our proposed system implements a two-phase architecture to first identify...

Filtering noisy parallel corpora or removing mistranslations out of training sets can improve the quality of a statistical machine translation. Discriminative methods for filtering the corpora such as a maximum entropy model, need properly labeled training data, which are usually unavailable. Generating all possible sentence pairs (the Cartesian product) to generate labeled data, produces an im...
