Edeprels from reduced relative clauses

nschneid opened this issue · comments

RRCs lack a relativizer to receive the relative clause dependency in Basic Dependencies, so we have to use heuristics to infer it.

Need to check for whether the RC is passive, whether it has a stranded preposition, whether it has a subject, etc.

If the RC has a subordinate clause on its own, manual checking may be necessary.

^ this commit supports the script in #474 by avoiding ambiguity between multiple edeps, one of which is for the RC

This sounds interesting - would you be able to make a depedit version of this addition for the GU corpora enhancer?

You mean for amir-zeldes/gum#114? I don't know the extent to which adding the missing edeps can be automated. @xiulinyang is looking at this.

Oh, this is manual? nvm I somehow understood that there was a script from the above.

The script uses the edeprels that are already there to add construction information. But a lot are still missing, and with relative clauses there are many corner cases.
