An application of the interlingua system ISS for Spanish-English pronominal anaphora generation
Jesús Peral, Antonio Ferrández · 2000
In this paper, we present the Interlingua system ISS to generate the pronominal anaphora into the Spanish and English languages. We also describe the main problems in the pronoun generation into both languages such as zero-subject constructions and number, gender and syntactic differences. Our system improves other proposals presented so far due to the fact that we are able to solve and generate intersentential anaphora, to detect coreference chains and to generate Spanish zero-pronouns into English, issues that are hardly considered by other systems. Finally, we provide outstanding results of our system on unrestricted corpora.
