| Challenge: | Syntactic analysis plays an important role in semantic parsing, but the nature of this role remains a topic of ongoing debate. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Universal Dependencies and UCCA as test cases to compare syntactic and semantic schemes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed comparison methodology can be used for fine-grained evaluation of UCCA parsing, highlighting both challenges and potential sources for improvement. |
