On Parsing as Tagging (2022.emnlp-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing approaches to reduce constituency parsing to tagging are based on linearization, learning, and decoding . linearization of the derivation tree is the most critical factor in achieving accurate parsers as taggers .
Approach: They propose a pipeline with three steps for reducing constituency parsing to tagging . they find that linearization and learning are critical factors for accurate parsers .
Outcome: The proposed pipelines are linearized, learning, and decoded, and have three steps to achieve accurate parsing as taggers.

Challenge: Using custom architectures, constituency parsers are limited and require specialized hardware.
Approach: They propose an algorithm that assigns labels to each word in a sentence in parallel and then performs a reconciliation phase to extract a tree in (empirically) linear time.
Outcome: The proposed model achieves 95.4 F1 on the WSJ test set while also achieving substantial speedups compared to current state-of-the-art parsers with comparable accuracies.

Parsing linearizations appreciate PoS tags - but some are fussy about errors (2022.aacl-short)

Challenge: Recent work on the impact of PoS tags on graph- and transition-based parsers suggests that they are only useful when tagging accuracy is prohibitively high or in low-resource scenarios.
Approach: They examine the impact of PoS tags on graph- and transition-based parsers and propose to use them in a new paradigm for sequence labeling.
Outcome: The proposed model is best when tagging accuracy and resource availability are high.
