[PDF][PDF] Low resource dependency parsing: Cross-lingual parameter sharing in a neural network parser

L Duong, T Cohn, S Bird, P Cook - … of the 53rd annual meeting of …, 2015 - aclanthology.org
Training a high-accuracy dependency parser requires a large treebank. However, these are
costly and time-consuming to build. We propose a learning method that needs less data …

UDapter: Language adaptation for truly Universal Dependency parsing

A Üstün, A Bisazza, G Bouma, G van Noord - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
Recent advances in multilingual dependency parsing have brought the idea of a truly
universal parser closer to reality. However, cross-language interference and restrained …

Modeling language variation and universals: A survey on typological linguistics for natural language processing

EM Ponti, H O'horan, Y Berzak, I Vulić… - Computational …, 2019 - direct.mit.edu
Linguistic typology aims to capture structural and semantic variation across the world's
languages. A large-scale typology could provide excellent guidance for multilingual Natural …

On difficulties of cross-lingual transfer with order differences: A case study on dependency parsing

WU Ahmad, Z Zhang, X Ma, E Hovy, KW Chang… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2018 - arxiv.org
Different languages might have different word orders. In this paper, we investigate cross-
lingual transfer and posit that an order-agnostic model will perform better when transferring …

Towards a universal grammar for natural language processing

J Nivre - International conference on intelligent text processing …, 2015 - Springer
Universal Dependencies is a recent initiative to develop cross-linguistically consistent
treebank annotation for many languages, with the goal of facilitating multilingual parser …

Learning language representations for typology prediction

[PDF][PDF] Distributed word representation learning for cross-lingual dependency parsing

M Xiao, Y Guo - Proceedings of the eighteenth conference on …, 2014 - aclanthology.org
This paper proposes to learn languageindependent word representations to address cross-
lingual dependency parsing, which aims to predict the dependency parsing trees for …

Distilling an ensemble of greedy dependency parsers into one MST parser

A Kuncoro, M Ballesteros, L Kong, C Dyer… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2016 - arxiv.org
We introduce two first-order graph-based dependency parsers achieving a new state of the
art. The first is a consensus parser built from an ensemble of independently trained greedy …

Hierarchical low-rank tensors for multilingual transfer parsing

Y Zhang, R Barzilay - 2015 - dspace.mit.edu
Accurate multilingual transfer parsing typically relies on careful feature engineering. In this
paper, we propose a hierarchical tensor-based approach for this task. This approach …

Cross-lingual dependency parsing with unlabeled auxiliary languages

WU Ahmad, Z Zhang, X Ma, KW Chang… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
Cross-lingual transfer learning has become an important weapon to battle the unavailability
of annotated resources for low-resource languages. One of the fundamental techniques to …
