Ubertagging: Joint Segmentation and Supertagging for English

Year: 2013
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: A precise syntacto-semantic analysis of English requires a large detailed lexicon with the possibility of treating multiple tokens as a single meaning-bearing unit, a word-with-spaces.However parsing with such a lexicon, as included in the English Resource Grammar, can be very slow.We show that we can apply supertagging techniques over an ambiguous token lattice without resorting to previously used heuristics, a process we call ubertagging.Our model achieves an ubertagging accuracy that can lead to a four to eight fold speed up while improving parser accuracy.
