This paper investigates the construction of a strong baseline based on general purpose sequence-to-sequence models for constituency parsing.We incorporate several techniques that were mainly developed in natural language generation tasks, e.g., machine translation and summarization, and demonstrate that the sequenceto-sequence model achieves the current top-notch parsers' performance without requiring explicit task-specific knowledge or architecture of constituent parsing.
