Abstract:

Coreference resolution, a key in natural language processing, is a basic reasearch topic. This paper describes how an event-oriented Chinese coreference corpus is built based on the Chinese emergency corpus (CEC) via automatic generation and manual annotation. Differing from the traditional coreference corpuses, this corpus is directed to the text, in which knowledge representation unit is based on events, and coreference of elements and events are annotated. The construction of corpus is a key to the research of event-oriented Chinese coreference resolution, which provides more resources to support. The coreference of elements and events are counted and analyzed to provide a basis for the future research.

Key words: Chinese, event, coreference, corpus
