The paper enhances French parsing accuracy by integrating data from a syntactic lexicon and applying word clustering methods to verbs within a Probabilistic Context-Free Grammar framework.
Abstract
More Like ThisThis article evaluates the integration of data extracted from a French syntactic lexicon, the Lexicon-Grammar (Gross, 1994), into a probabilistic parser. We show that by applying clustering methods on verbs of the French Treebank (Abeillé et al., 2003), we obtain accurate performances on French with a parser based on a Probabilistic Context-Free Grammar (Petrov et al., 2006).
