Adjudication of coreference annotations via answer set optimisation

Marmara Turkish Coreference Corpus and Coreference Resolution Baseline

“…Our adjudication tool (see Section 3.5) permits a manual specification of partial coreference chains; however, performing such a manual override was not necessary, as we did not encounter mistakes of the automatic adjudication method. Additional details about the adjudication method and tool have been described by our group Schüller (2018).…”

“…Technically, this optimization is performed with the knowledge representation formalism Answer Set Programming (Brewka, Eiter, and Truszczynski, 2011) which yields provably optimal solutions to combinatorial problems in reasonable time. Manual intervention for editing mentions and coreference chains is possible in our tool, details about the file formats and about how to represent the adjudication problem in a way that is efficient enough for practical purposes are described in a separate paper Schüller (2018). In Phase II we performed only automatic adjudication and did not need manual intervention.…”
