This software implements the semantic dependency parsers described in [1]: './NeurboParser' corresponds to the basic model, and './MeurboParser' to the multitask models.
The following software are needed to build the parser:
- A C++ compiler supporting the [C++11 language standard] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B11)
- Boost libraries (tested with version 1.61.0)
- Eigen (newer versions strongly recommended. tested with development version, changeset 9647:9464b6f3131c)
- CMake (tested with version 3.6.2)
- DyNet
git clone https://github.com/Noahs-ARK/NeurboParser.git cd NeurboParser
The first time you clone the repository, you need to sync the dynet/
submodule.
git clone https://github.com/clab/dynet.git
./install_deps.sh
mkdir -p NeurboParer/build
cd NeurboParser/build
cmake ..; make -j4
cd ../..
Follow the instructions under './semeval2015_data' to prepare the data. You can use the scripts in './NeurboParser' to train/evaluate the parser.
You will first need to put 100-dimensional pretrained GloVe embedding [3] under 'embedding/'. Default hyperparameters in the scripts are used in [1].
The current version of DyNet uses some different strategies to deal with numerical issues than the older version we used in [1]. Based on our experience, we expect the current parser to have slightly better evaluation numbers on benchmark datasets than those described in [1].
We are still working on adapting the multitask models to use the new version of DyNet.
