Dependency parsing with structure preserving embeddings (2021.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Modern neural approaches to dependency parsing are trained to predict a tree structure by learning a contextual representation for tokens in a sentence and a head–dependent scoring function. |
| Approach: | They propose to combine a contextual representation for tokens and a head–dependent scoring function to learn interpretable representations by training a parser to explicitly preserve structural properties of a tree. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach yields strong tree distance preservation and parsing performance on par with a competitive graph-based parser. |
