Resolving Entity Coreference in Croatian with a Constrained Mention-Pair Model

Being able to identify that different mentions refer to the same entity is beneficial for applications such as question answering and text summarization. In this paper, we propose the first model for entity coreference resolution for Croatian. We enforce transitivity constraints with integer linear programming on top of pairwise decisions produced by the supervised mention-pair model. Experimental results show that the proposed model significantly outperforms two different rule-based baselines, reaching performance of 74.4% MUC score and 77.6% B3 score.
