SUMMARY : Session O10-E Parsing Evaluation

 

Title Constraint-Based Parsing as an Efficient Solution: Results from the Parsing Evaluation Campaign EASy
Authors T. Vanrullen, P. Blache, J. Balfourier
Abstract This paper describes the unfolding of the EASy evaluation campaign for french parsers as well as the techniques employed for the participation of laboratory LPL to this campaign. Three symbolic parsers based on a same resource and a same formalism (Property Grammars) are described and evaluated. The first results of this evaluation are analyzed and lead to the conclusion that symbolic parsing in a constraint-based formalism is efficient and robust.
Keywords Surface syntactic analysis, Parsers, Shallow Parsing, Deep Parsing, Property Grammars, Granularity, Evaluation.
