Designing Algorithms for Referring with Proper Names
نویسنده
چکیده
Standard algorithms for attribute choice in the generation of referring expressions have little to say about the role of Proper Names in referring expressions. We discuss the implications of letting these algorithms produce Proper Names and expressions that have Proper Names as parts.

Exploring the relationship between proper name anomia and word retrieval: a single case study.
We report the results of an investigation of the spoken word retrieval abilities of a patient, BG, with proper name anomia. Our investigations reveal that she is impaired in retrieving common nouns as well as proper names. Common noun retrieval was influenced by age-of-acquisition, word familiarity and name agreement. Cued retrieval of proper names was influenced by age-of-acquisition, although...
متن کاملBasis Identification for Automatic Creation of Pronunciation Lexicon for Proper Names
Development of a proper names pronunciation lexicon is usually a manual effort which can not be avoided. Grapheme to phoneme (G2P) conversion modules, in literature, are usually rule based and work best for non-proper names in a particular language. Proper names are foreign to a G2P module. We follow an optimization approach to enable automatic construction of proper names pronunciation lexicon...
متن کاملNamed Entity Transliteration Generation Leveraging Statistical Machine Translation Technology
Automatically identifying that different orthographic variants of names are referring to the same name is a significant challenge for processing natural language processing since they typically constitute the bulk of the out-of-vocabulary tokens. The problem is exacerbated when the name is foreign. In this paper we address the problem of generating valid orthographic variants for proper names, ...
متن کاملWeb Proper Names: Naming Referents on the Web
When http: URIs are used to refer to things not on the Web as opposed to web pages, ambiguity arises on the Web. Both humans and machines need to solve the question of what someone is actually referring to when they use a http: URI, especially if that URI can be used both to refer to a web page and a thing that is not on the Web. We propose a multi-tiered solution we called “Web Proper Names” t...
متن کاملDiscourse Segment and Japanese Referring Expressions: Are These Bare NPs or Proper Names ?
Forms of Japanese referring expressions are mainly divided into four types: bare NPs, demonstrative NPs (i.e. either as determiner or as pronoun) and zero pronouns. Out of the four types of the referring expressions, bare NPs are the most common type as a subsequent mention and zero pronouns are used only in limited conditions. Based on the centering framework, the results suggest that the cent...
