We are concerned with dependencyoriented morphosyntactic parsing of running text. While a parsing grammar should avoid introducing structurallyunresolvable distinctionsin order to...
We provide a general account of parallelism in discourse, and apply it to the special case of resolving possible readings for instances of VP ellipsis. We show how several problem...
An assumption shared by many theories of discourse is that discourse structure constrains anaphora resolution (cf. [Grosz and Sidner 1986] for definite NPs, [Lascarides and Asher ...
This paper proposes a method for measuring semantic similarity between words as a new tool for text analysis. The similarity is measured on a semantic network constructed systemat...
We study parsing of tree adjoining grammars with particular emphasis on the use of shared forests to represent all the parse trees deriving a well-formed string. We show that ther...
