In this paper we present a novel method for unsupervised coreference resolution. We introduce a precision-oriented inference method that scores a candidate entity of a mention based on the most informative mention pair relation between the given mention entity pair. We introduce an informativeness score for determining the most precise relation of a mention entity pair regarding the coreference decisions. The informativeness score is learned robustly during few iterations of the expectation maximization algorithm. The proposed unsupervised system outperforms existing unsupervised methods on all benchmark data sets.
