Papers

  1. The CODI-CRAC 2022 Shared Task on Anaphora, Bridging, and Discourse Deixis in Dialogue (2022)
    The second edition of a shared task on anaphora in dialogue, with three tasks: identity anaphora (including split antecedents and singletons), bridging reference, and discourse deixis (a pronoun such as that or this referring to an event, fact or utterance).
  2. Parser combinators for Tigrinya and Oromo morphology (2018)
    The authors write rule-based morphological parsers for Tigrinya and Oromo as parser combinators in Python, not as finite-state transducers.
  3. A trainable transfer-based MT approach for languages with limited resources (2004)
    An approach for languages with few resources. Bilingual speakers, who need not be linguists, translate a designed English corpus into their language and mark word alignments in a special tool. The corpus is organised in minimal pairs and in order of complexity, from noun phrases to sentences, so that rules can be…
  4. Balancing Expressiveness and Simplicity in an Interlingua for Task Based Dialogue (2002)
    The paper compares two domain-action interlinguas for speech translation in travel dialogue. The older C-star II format has 44 speech acts, 93 concepts and 117 argument names; the Nespole format is finer, with 65 speech acts, 110 concepts and 292 arguments. The authors re-tag the C-star II database (about 2,300…
  5. The Correct Place of Lexical Semantics in Interlingual MT (1994)
    The paper argues that a lexical conceptual structure (LCS) cannot be an interlingua by itself. It contributes to the lexical-semantic level, while the interlingua proper is a text meaning representation (TMR) tied to an ontology. The Mikrokosmos model keeps both: a lexicon whose entries use role names as labels for…
