Definition, Dataset and Models for Numeric Fused-Heads Identification and Resolution","arxiv_id":"1905.10886","date":"2019-05-26","proceeding":null,"authors":["Yanai Elazar","Yoav Goldberg"],"abstract":"We provide the first computational treatment of fused-heads constructions (FH), focusing on the numeric fused-heads (NFH). FHs constructions are noun phrases (NPs) in which the head noun is missing and is said to be `fused' with its dependent modifier. This missing information is implicit and is important for sentence understanding. The missing references are easily filled in by humans but pose a challenge for computational models. We formulate the handling of FH as a two stages process: identification of the FH construction and resolution of the missing head. We explore the NFH phenomena in large corpora of English text and create (1) a dataset and a highly accurate method for NFH identification; (2) a 10k examples (1M tokens) crowd-sourced dataset of NFH resolution; and (3) a neural baseline for the NFH resolution task. We release our code and dataset, in hope to foster further research into this challenging problem.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.10886v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.10886v1.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":"wheres-my-head-definition-dataset-and-models","repo_url":"https://github.com/yanaiela/num_fh","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"missing-elements","task_name":"Missing Elements"},{"task_slug":"sentence","task_name":"Sentence"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[{"slug":"numeric-fused-head","name":"Numeric Fused-Head","full_name":""}],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":"https://syntology.ai/paper/1905.10886","atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1905.10886","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
