A Weak supervision with Syntactic Cues for Reference Resolution

Anonymous

Abstract: In recipes, contextual understanding of instructions depends on temporal interpretation of the entities because of their spatio-temporal changes. Accordingly, we propose the use of reference resolution to find the origin action of entities, provided that the entity is an output from a previous action, instead of being a raw ingredient. Here, we introduce a weak supervision method that supports the syntactic features for producing latent links between entities and their origin actions. The results show that our weak supervision outperforms the previous unsupervised studies with \%8 F1. In particular, our approach indicates \%82 resolution performance for pronouns and \%85 for null entities.
