Bracketing Compound Nouns for Logic Form Derivation
Vasile Rus, DAN I. MOLDOVAN, Orest Bolohan · 2002
We present here a method for bracketing coordinated com-pound nouns in the larger context of deriving first order logic forms. The method consists of two phases: (1) detection- extract candidate compound nouns from a parse tree and (2) interpretation- provide a bracketing solution for each candidate. Bracketing performance on 525 coordinations is 87.42%. This compares favorably with a 52.35 % baseline when a default split by the coordination is applied.
