A Multigraph Model for Coreference Resolution

Abstract

This paper presents HITS ’ coreference resolution system that participated in the CoNLL-2012 shared task on multilingual unrestricted coreference resolution. Our system employs a simple multigraph representation of the relation between mentions in a document, where the nodes correspond to mentions and the edges correspond to relations between the mentions. Entities are obtained via greedy clustering. We participated in the closed tasks for English and Chinese. Our system ranked second in the English closed task. 1
