| Challenge: | a new method for nominal coordination boundary identification is proposed . it uses pre-trained word embeddings to measure similarities of words and detects the span of coordination . |
| Approach: | They propose a method for nominal coordination boundary identification that uses pre-trained word embeddings to measure similarities of words and detects the span of coordination. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can identify coordination boundaries without training on labeled data . it is comparable to a recent supervised method for the case when the coordinator conjoins simple noun phrases. |
