Papers with Wall Street Journal test set
Extending a Parser to Distant Domains Using a Few Dozen Partially Annotated Examples (P18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Statistical parsers are often criticized for their performance outside of the domain they were trained on . we show that word representations reduce the need for domain adaptation when the target domain is syntactically similar to the source domain. |
| Approach: | They propose a way to adapt a parser to a syntactically similar target domain using partial annotations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model increases the accuracy of a parser on the Wall Street Journal by 1.7% over the previous state-of-the-art model. |
