We describe the work carried out by DCU on the Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis task at
SemEval 2014. Our team submitted one constrained run for the restaurant domain and one …

This paper reports on the first shared task on statistical parsing of morphologically rich lan-
guages (MRLs). The task features data sets from nine languages, each available both in …

Abstract The term Morphologically Rich Languages (MRLs) refers to languages in which
significant information concerning syntactic units and relations is expressed at word-level …

Multiword expressions lie at the syntax/semantics interface and have motivated alternative
theories of syntax like Construction Grammar. Until now, however, syntactic analysis and …

MACAON is a tool suite for standard NLP tasks developed for French. MACAON has been
designed to process both human-produced text and highly ambiguous word-lattices …

We present a constituency parsing system for Modern Hebrew. The system is based on the
PCFG-LA parsing method of Petrov et al., which is extended in various ways in order to …

The integration of compounds in a parsing procedure has been shown to improve accuracy
in an artificial context where such expressions have been perfectly preidentified. This article …

We consider the supervised training setting in which we learn task-specific word
embeddings. We assume that we start with initial embeddings learned from unlabelled data …

We investigate parsing replicability across 7 languages (and 8 treebanks), showing that
choices concerning the use of grammatical functions in parsing or evaluation and the …

We present a simple and effective way to perform out-of-domain statistical parsing by
drastically reducing lexical data sparseness in a PCFG-LA architecture. We replace terminal …
