Punctuation-aware treebank tree binarization
This article presents a curated resource and evaluation suite for punctuation-aware treebank binarization. Standard binarization pipelines drop punctuation before head selection, which alters constituent shape and harms head-child identification. We release (1) a reproducible pipeline that preserves punctuation as sibling nodes prior to binarization, (2) derived artifacts and metadata (intermediate @X markers, reversibility signatures, alignment indices), and (3) an accompanying evaluation suite covering head-child prediction, round-trip reversibility, and structural compatibility with derivational resources (CCGbank). On the Penn Treebank, punctuation-aware preprocessing improves head prediction accuracy from 73.66\% (Collins rules) and 86.66\% (MLP) to 91.85\% with the same classifier, and achieves competitive alignment against CCGbank derivations. All code, configuration files, and documentation are released to enable replication and extension to other corpora.

Better heads do not guarantee better binarized constituency parsing
We revisit punctuation-aware tree binarization for constituency parsing and ask whether dependency-induced headedness improves binary parser supervision. Although learned heads substantially outperform rule-based heads i…

BinarizationA Generative Model for Punctuation in Dependency Trees
Treebanks traditionally treat punctuation marks as ordinary words, but linguists have suggested that a tree's "true" punctuation marks are not observed (Nunberg, 1990). These latent "underlying" marks serve to delimit or…
