Sentences with Gapping: Parsing and Reconstructing Elided Predicates (N18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Sentences with gapping lack an overt predicate to indicate the relation between two or more arguments. |
| Approach: | They propose two methods for parsing to a Universal Dependencies graph representation that explicitly encodes the elided material with additional nodes and edges. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods reconstruct elided material from dependency trees with high accuracy when the parser correctly predicts the existence of a gap. |
