Automatic Construction of a Large-Scale Corpus for Geoparsing Using Wikipedia Hyperlinks

Geoparsing is the task of estimating the latitude and longitude (coordinates) of location expressions in texts. Geoparsing must deal with the ambiguity of the expressions that indicate multiple locations with the same no…

Using hyperlinks to improve multilingual partial parsers

Syntactic annotation is costly and not available for the vast majority of the world{'}s languages. We show that sometimes we can do away with less labeled data by exploiting more readily available forms of mark-up. Speci…

Anchor Prediction: A Topic Modeling Approach

Networks of documents connected by hyperlinks, such as Wikipedia, are ubiquitous. Hyperlinks are inserted by the authors to enrich the text and facilitate the navigation through the network. However, authors tend to inse…

Syntactic Search by Example

We present a system that allows a user to search a large linguistically annotated corpus using syntactic patterns over dependency graphs. In contrast to previous attempts to this effect, we introduce a light-weight query…
