5 paper cards in Mova's library · 2014–2018

Chris Dyer wrote 5 of the papers Mova reads, in 2014–2018, most of them on [Dependency parsing](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/topics/dependency-parsing/), [Machine translation](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/topics/machine-translation/); often with [Noah A. Smith](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/authors/noah-a-smith/), [Archna Bhatia](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/authors/archna-bhatia/), Austin Matthews.

## Papers

1. **[The NarrativeQA Reading Comprehension Challenge](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/kocisky-2018-narrativeqa-reading-comprehension-challenge/)** *(2018)* NarrativeQA pairs 1,567 long stories (half Gutenberg books, half movie scripts) with plot summaries from Wikipedia; annotators who saw only the summary wrote about 30 question–answer pairs per story in their own words (46,765 in all, answers 4.7 tokens on average, a second reference answer per question).
2. **[Ontology-Aware Token Embeddings for Prepositional Phrase Attachment](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/onto-2017-dasigi-ontology-aware-token-embeddings-prepositional/)** *(2017)* A type-level embedding gives one vector per word form, so "pool" as a place and "pool" as a game share a vector.
3. **[Generation from Abstract Meaning Representation using Tree Transducers](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/flanigan-2016-generation-abstract-meaning-representation-tree/)** *(2016)* The paper generates English from AMR graphs in two steps. A breadth-first spanning tree is taken from the graph, and a weighted tree-to-string transducer turns that tree into a sentence. The transducer rules are extracted from AMR-aligned sentences: each aligned subgraph becomes a rule with argument slots for its…
4. **[Transition-Based Dependency Parsing with Stack Long Short-Term Memory](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/missing-2015-dyer-transition-based-dependency-parsing-stack/)** *(2015)* The paper introduces the stack LSTM: an LSTM with a stack pointer, so that pushes and pops take constant time and the network keeps a vector summary of the current stack contents.
5. **[A Dependency Parser for Tweets](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2014-kong-dependency-parser-tweets/)** *(2014)* Tweets break the assumptions of newswire parsers: many tokens (retweet markers, usernames, hashtags, URLs, punctuation) have no syntactic role, a tweet can hold several utterances with their own roots, and multiword names and idioms are common.
