Coordinate Constructions in English Enhanced Universal Dependencies: Analysis and Computational Modeling

Summary

In Enhanced UD, coordination is represented by propagating the first conjunct's relations (its head and its dependents) to the other conjuncts. The English enhanced treebanks were produced automatically, by applying the heuristic converter of Schuster and Manning (2016) to manual basic trees, and that converter only propagates core arguments. The authors manually checked and corrected 1,417 EWT sentences with coordinated verbs. They decided by meaning, so they also propagated adjunct dependents such as obl where the context required it. During annotation they found systematic converter errors, for example when conjuncts differ in voice or mood, or when several coordinations interact. With the new data they compare rules, SVM classifiers and a new neural model with tree features and RoBERTa, for the first time systematically. On gold trees the data-driven models beat the rules. For automatic parsing, a graph parser that predicts enhanced edges directly clearly beats "tree parser plus converter" pipelines.
