ZAC: Zero Anaphora Corpus A Corpus for Zero Anaphora Resolution in Portuguese

چکیده
This paper describes a corpus of Brazilian Portuguese texts built in view of the construction of an Anaphora Resolution system, which is part of a fully-fledged Natural Language Processing system (STRING). The ZAC corpus is aimed at the resolution of the so-called zero-anaphora, that is, an anaphora relation where the anaphoric expression (or anaphor) has been zeroed The paper briefly discusses the linguistic issues in the process of zero anaphora resolution, and describes the annotation process in detail, as well as the main aspects of the anaphoric relations thus annotated.

ZAC.PB: An Annotated Corpus for Zero Anaphora Resolution in Portuguese
This paper describes the methodology adopted in the construction of an annotated corpus for the study of zero anaphora in Portuguese, the ZAC corpus. To our knowledge, no such corpus exists at this time for the Portuguese language. The purpose of this linguistic resource is to promote the use of automatic discovery of linguistic parameters for anaphora resolution systems. Because of the complex...
متن کاملA Discriminative Approach to Japanese Zero Anaphora Resolution with Large-scale Lexicalized Case Frames
We present a discriminative model for Japanese zero anaphora resolution that simultaneously determines an appropriate case frame for a given predicate and its predicate-argument structure. Our model is based on a log linear framework, and exploits lexical features obtained from a large raw corpus, as well as non-lexical features obtained from a relatively small annotated corpus. We report the r...
متن کاملZero Pronominal Anaphora Resolution for the Romanian Language
This paper presents a new study on the distribution, identification, and resolution of zero pronouns in Romanian. A Romanian corpus, including legal, encyclopaedic, literary, and news texts has been created and manually annotated for zero pronouns. Using a morphological parser for Romanian and machine learning methods, experiments were performed on the created corpus for the identification and ...
متن کاملA Tree Kernel-Based Unified Framework for Chinese Zero Anaphora Resolution
This paper proposes a unified framework for zero anaphora resolution, which can be divided into three sub-tasks: zero anaphor detection, anaphoricity determination and antecedent identification. In particular, all the three sub-tasks are addressed using tree kernel-based methods with appropriate syntactic parse tree structures. Experimental results on a Chinese zero anaphora corpus show that th...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Method for Analyzing Japanese Anaphora Integrating Zero Pronoun Detection and Resolution
This paper proposes a method to analyze Japanese anaphora, in which zero pronouns (omitted obligatory cases) are used to refer to preceding entities (antecedents). Unlike the case of general coreference resolution, zero pronouns have to be detected prior to resolution because they are not expressed in discourse. Our method integrates two probability parameters to perform zero pronoun detection ...
