As a result, they miss what entities embedded inside other entities can tell us, such as a state inside a court's name or a job title inside a person mention. The authors address the shortage of large training data for nested NER by building… 2. **[Classifying Speech Acts using Verbal Response Modes](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lampert-2006-classifying-speech-acts-verbal-response/)** *(2006 · 32 citations)* The authors want to help email users track open requests and commitments. To get there, they need a domain-independent way to label the communicative function of each utterance. Existing dialogue act schemes tend to be tied to particular tasks, so they adopt Stiles' Verbal Response Modes (VRM). VRM derives its eight… ## All works 7 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Planning Text for Advisory Dialogues: Capturing Intentional and Rhetorical Information ↗](https://aclanthology.org/J93-4004/) Edinburgh Research Explorer (University of Edinburgh) · no summary yet**Johanna D.
