Using existing systems to supplement small amounts of annotated grammatical relations training data

Abstract

Grammatical relationships (GRs) form an important level of natural language processing, but different sets of GRs are useful for different purposes. Therefore, one may often only have time to obtain a small training corpus with the desired GR annotations. To boost the performance from using such a small training corpus on a transformation rule learner, we use existing systems that find related types of annotations.
