## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Breaking NLP: Using Morphosyntax, Semantics, Pragmatics and World Knowledge to Fool Sentiment Analysis Systems](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/mahler-2017-breaking-nlp-morphosyntax-semantics-pragmatics/)** *(2017 · 34 citations)* The authors, a team from The Ohio State University, took part as "breakers" in the "Build It Break It" sentiment analysis competition held at EMNLP in 2017.
2. **[Enhancing PTB Universal Dependencies for Grammar-Based Surface Realization](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/king-2016-enhancing-ptb-universal-dependencies-grammar/)** *(2016 · 1 citation)* Grammar-based realisers work well when their input carries long-distance dependencies and coordination, but standard UD conversions from the Penn Treebank lose these, because the conversion ignores the traces.
