A Japanese Predicate Argument Structure Analysis using Decision Lists
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a new automatic method for Japanese predicate argument structure analysis. The method learns relevant features to assign case roles to the argument of the target predicate using the features of the words located closest to the target predicate under various constraints such as dependency types, words, semantic categories, parts of speech, functional words and predicate voices. We constructed decision lists in which these features were sorted by their learned weights. Using our method, we integrated the tasks of semantic role labeling and zero-pronoun identification, and achieved a 17% improvement compared with a baseline method in a sentence level performance analysis.

Word-based Japanese typed dependency parsing with grammatical function analysis
We present a novel scheme for wordbased Japanese typed dependency parser which integrates syntactic structure analysis and grammatical function analysis such as predicate-argument structure analysis. Compared to bunsetsu-based dependency parsing, which is predominantly used in Japanese NLP, it provides a natural way of extracting syntactic constituents, which is useful for downstream applicatio...
متن کاملJapanese Predicate Argument Structure Analysis Exploiting Argument Position and Type
We propose an approach to Japanese predicate argument structure analysis exploiting argument position and type. In particular, we propose the following two methods. First, in order to use information in the sentences in preceding context of the predicate more effectively, we propose an improved similarity measure between argument positions which is more robust than a previous co-reference-based...
متن کاملJoint Case Argument Identification for Japanese Predicate Argument Structure Analysis
Existing methods for Japanese predicate argument structure (PAS) analysis identify case arguments of each predicate without considering interactions between the target PAS and others in a sentence. However, the argument structures of the predicates in a sentence are semantically related to each other. This paper proposes new methods for Japanese PAS analysis to jointly identify case arguments o...
متن کاملParameter estimation of Japanese predicate argument structure analysis model using eye gaze information
In this paper, we propose utilising eye gaze information for estimating parameters of a Japanese predicate argument structure (PAS) analysis model. We employ not only linguistic information in the text, but also the information of annotator eye gaze during their annotation process. We hypothesise that annotator’s frequent looks at certain candidates imply their plausibility of being the argumen...
متن کاملLearning-Based Argument Structure Analysis of Event-Nouns in Japanese
Previous work on predicate-argument structure analysis has focused largely on verbs and adjectives. However, to extract richer information from such a sentence as His decision was right, not only the predicate was right but also the noun decision need to be identi ed as an event denoting expression. Here, we call event denoting nouns event-nouns, which refer to events like he decided som...
