## Papers

1. **[Parsing Noun Phrases in the Penn Treebank](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/bank-2011-vadas-parsing-noun-phrases-penn-treebank/)** *(2011)* The Penn Treebank does not mark the internal structure of noun phrases, so statistical parsers cannot learn it.
2. **[Adding Noun Phrase Structure to the Penn Treebank](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/bank-2007-vadas-adding-noun-phrase-structure-penn/)** *(2007)* The Penn Treebank leaves base noun phrases flat, so "Air Force contract" has no internal structure, and any parser trained on it cannot learn that "Air Force" is a unit.
