Using the Web for Nominal Anaphora Resolution
Katja Markert, Malvina Nissim, Natalia N. Modjeska · 2003
We present a novel method for resolving non-pronominal anaphora. Instead of using handcrafted lexical resources, we search the Web with shallow patterns which can be predetermined for the type of anaphoric phenomenon. In experiments for other-anaphora and bridging, our shallow, almost knowledge-free and unsupervised method achieves state-of-the-art results.
