[developers] Coref over ERSs?

[Woodley Packard]

Hi Nikhil,

In the past I worked on coreference resolution in MRS, although never quite to the point of a publication or software release.  Are you interested primarily in coreference within a single sentence or across multiple sentences?  Also, what format are you considering consuming MRS in (simple text based, DMRS, EDs, DM, ...)?  It’s possible some of my (oldish) tools could be of use to you.

Regards,
Woodley

So, in a simple case like "Grab the block and lift it up," where "the block" and "it" are not bound in the ERS but are both the endpoints of ARG2 arcs from the head verb, is there anything that can take that and actually perform the binding?
