Learning Preference of Dependency between Japanese Subordinate Clauses and its Evaluation in Parsing
Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2000)
Abstract
(Utsuro et al., 2000) proposed statistical method for learning dependency preference of Japanese subordinate clauses, in which scopeembedding preference of subordinate clauses is exploited as a useful information source for disambiguating dependencies between subordinate clauses. Following (Utsuro et al., 2000), this paper presents detailed results of evaluating the proposed method by comparing it with several closely related existing techniques and shows that the proposed method outperforms those existing techniques.
