Multitask Pointer Network for Korean Dependency Parsing

摘要

Dependency parsing is a fundamental problem in natural language processing. We introduce a novel dependency-parsing framework called head-pointing-based dependency parsing. In this framework, we cast the Korean dependency parsing problem as a statistical head-pointing and arc-labeling problem. To address this problem, a novel neural network called the multitask pointer network is devised for a neural sequential head-pointing and type-labeling architecture. Our approach does not require any handcrafted features or language-specific rules to parse dependency. Furthermore, it achieves state-of-the-art performance for Korean dependency parsing.
