[object Object],Semantic Parse (Semantic Role Labelling)
Textual Entailment By “textually entailed” we mean: most people would agree that one sentence implies the other.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. This is the problem I would like to talk about – I wish I could talk about. Here is a challenge: write a program that responds correctly to these five questions. Many of us would love to be able to do it. This is a very natural problem; a short paragraph on Christopher Robin that we all Know and love, and a few questions about it; my six years old can answer these Almost instantaneously, yes, we cannot write a program that answers more than, say, 2 out of five questions. What is involved in being able to answer these? Clearly, there are many “small” local decisions that we need to make. We need to recognize that there are two Chris’s here. A father an a son. We need to resolve co-reference. We need sometimes To attach prepositions properly; The key issue, is that it is not sufficient to solve these local problems – we need to figure out how to put them Together in some coherent way. And in this talk, I will focus on this. We describe some recent works that we have done in this direction - ….. What do we know – in the last few years there has been a lot of work – and a considerable success on what I call here --- Here is a more concrete and easy example ----- There is an agreement today that learning/ statistics /information theory (you name it) is of prime importance to making Progress in these tasks. The key reason, is that rather than working on these high level difficult tasks, we have moved To work on well defined disambiguation problems that people felt are at the core of many problems. And, as an outcome of work in NLP and Learning Theory, there is today a pretty good understanding for how to solve All these problems – which are essentially the same problem.
  2. This is a collection of different problems of ambiguity resolution - from text correction – Sorry, it was too tempting to use this one… Word sense disambiguation, part of speech tagging to a decision that involves a decision across sentence All these are essentially the same classification problem – and with progress in learning theory and NLP We have pretty reliable solutions to these today. Here are a few more problems of this kind.
