Rutherford"],"abstract":"While coreference resolution is a well-established research area in Natural Language Processing (NLP), research focusing on Thai language remains limited due to the lack of large annotated corpora. In this work, we introduce ThaiCoref, a dataset for Thai coreference resolution. Our dataset comprises 777,271 tokens, 44,082 mentions and 10,429 entities across four text genres: university essays, newspapers, speeches, and Wikipedia. Our annotation scheme is built upon the OntoNotes benchmark with adjustments to address Thai-specific phenomena. Utilizing ThaiCoref, we train models employing a multilingual encoder and cross-lingual transfer techniques, achieving a best F1 score of 67.88\\% on the test set. Error analysis reveals challenges posed by Thai's unique linguistic features. To benefit the NLP community, we make the dataset and the model publicly available at http://www.github.com/nlp-chula/thai-coref .","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.06000v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.06000v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"thaicoref-thai-coreference-resolution-dataset","repo_url":"https://github.com/nlp-chula/thai-coref","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"coreference-resolution","task_name":"Coreference Resolution"},{"task_slug":"cross-lingual-transfer","task_name":"Cross-Lingual Transfer"},{"task_slug":"coreference-resolution-1","task_name":"coreference-resolution"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
