Antelogue: Pronoun Resolution for Text and Dialogue
نویسنده
چکیده
Antelogue is a pronoun resolution prototype designed to be released as off-the-shelf software to be used autonomously or integrated with larger anaphora resolution or other NLP systems. It has modules to handle pronouns in both text and dialogue. In Antelogue, the problem of pronoun resolution is addressed as a two-step process: a) acquiring information about properties of words and the entities they represent and b) determining an algorithm that utilizes these features to make resolution decisions. A hybrid approach is implemented that combines known statistical and machine learning techniques for feature acquisition and a symbolic algorithm for resolution.

A Machine Learning Approach to Pronoun Resolution in Spoken Dialogue
We apply a decision tree based approach to pronoun resolution in spoken dialogue. Our system deals with pronouns with NPand non-NP-antecedents. We present a set of features designed for pronoun resolution in spoken dialogue and determine the most promising features. We evaluate the system on twenty Switchboard dialogues and show that it compares well to Byron’s (2002) manually tuned system.
متن کاملThe DARE Corpus: A Resource for Anaphora Resolution in Dialogue Based Intelligent Tutoring Systems
We describe the DARE corpus, an annotated data set focusing on pronoun resolution in tutorial dialogue. Although data sets for general purpose anaphora resolution exist, they are not suitable for dialogue based Intelligent Tutoring Systems. To the best of our knowledge, no data set is currently available for pronoun resolution in dialogue based intelligent tutoring systems. The described DARE c...
متن کاملSemantics, Dialogue, and Reference Resolution
Most pronoun resolution research has focused on written corpora while using syntactical and surface cues. Though big gains have been made in this domain with those methods, it is difficult to do better than the 80% coverage in these domains without some world or semantic knowledge. We investigate this issue by incorporating rich semantic information into a proven reference resolution model over...
متن کاملDialogue focus tracking for zero pronoun resolution
We take a novel approach to zero pronoun resolution in Chinese: our model explicitly tracks the flow of focus in a discourse. Our approach, which generalizes to deictic references, is not reliant on the presence of overt noun phrase antecedents to resolve to, and allows us to address the large percentage of “non-anaphoric” pronouns filtered out in other approaches. We furthermore train our mode...
متن کاملDialogue Structure and Pronoun Resolution
This paper presents an empirical evaluation of a pronoun resolution algorithm augmented with discourse segmentation information. Past work has shown that segmenting discourse can aid in pronoun resolution by making potentially erroneous candidates inaccessible to a pronoun’s search. However, implementing this in practice has been difficult given the complexities associated with deciding on a us...
