Abstract

Mention detection is the first and a key stage in most of coreference resolution systems. Singleton mentions are the ones which appear only once and are not mentioned in the following texts. Singleton mentions always affect the performance of coreference resolution systems. To remove the singleton ones from the automatically predicted mentions, we propose a novel singleton detection method based on multi-window and multi-filter convolutional neural network (MMCNN). The MMCNN model can detect singleton mentions with less use of hand-designed features and more sentence information. Experiments show that our system outperforms all the existing singleton detection systems.
