Combining Dependency Parsing with PP Attachment (original) (raw)

Prepositional phrase (PP) attachment is a significant challenge in statistical parsing due to its reliance on lexical information. This research investigates the integration of PP attachment into dependency parsing, revealing that while minor improvements in parsing accuracy can be achieved, further enhancements may be obtained through partial dependency annotations. Future work will focus on adapting parser capabilities to better utilize PP attachment information, particularly in constituent parsing.
