Ceberio, Klara; Aduriz, Itziar; Díaz de Ilarraza, Arantza; Garcia-Azkoaga, Ines – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2018
In this paper we present the coreferential tagging of part of the EPEC Corpus of Basque. Although coreference is a pragmatic linguistic phenomenon highly dependent on the situational context, it shows some language-specific patterns that vary according to the features of each language. Due to the fact that Basque is not an Indo-European language,…
