Event anaphora resolution plays a critical role in discourse analysis. Th is paper focuses on improving event pronoun resolution using both loca l and global semantic information. In particular, a predicate -argument structure is proposed to represent the local semantic informati on about an event while the global semantic information is represented b y the entity coreference chains related with vario us arguments in the predicate-argument structure to complement its locality.
