Bridging Resolution: Making Sense of the State of the Art

While Yu and Poesio (2020) have recently demonstrated the superiority of their neural multi-task learning (MTL) model to rule-based approaches for bridging anaphora resolution, there is little understanding of (1) how it…

Probing for Bridging Inference in Transformer Language Models

We probe pre-trained transformer language models for bridging inference. We first investigate individual attention heads in BERT and observe that attention heads at higher layers prominently focus on bridging relations i…

Integrating knowledge graph embeddings to improve mention representation for bridging anaphora resolution

Lexical semantics and world knowledge are crucial for interpreting bridging anaphora. Yet, existing computational methods for acquiring and injecting this type of information into bridging resolution systems suffer impor…

Bridging Anaphora Resolution as Question Answering

Most previous studies on bridging anaphora resolution (Poesio et al., 2004; Hou et al., 2013b; Hou, 2018a) use the pairwise model to tackle the problem and assume that the gold mention information is given. In this paper…

A Deterministic Algorithm for Bridging Anaphora Resolution

Previous work on bridging anaphora resolution (Poesio et al., 2004; Hou et al., 2013b) use syntactic preposition patterns to calculate word relatedness. However, such patterns only consider NPs' head nouns and hence do n…

Rule- and Learning-based Methods for Bridging Resolution in the ARRAU Corpus

We present two systems for bridging resolution, which we submitted to the CRAC shared task on bridging anaphora resolution in the ARRAU corpus (track 2): a rule-based approach following Hou et al. 2014 and a learning-bas…

Enhanced Word Representations for Bridging Anaphora Resolution

Most current models of word representations(e.g.,GloVe) have successfully captured fine-grained semantics. However, semantic similarity exhibited in these word embeddings is not suitable for resolving bridging anaphora, …
