## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[A Corpus-based Investigation of Definite Description Use](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/poesio-1998-corpus-based-investigation-definite-description/)** *(1998 · 407 citations)* Annotating corpora with how definite descriptions (noun phrases with "the") are interpreted is needed for MUC-style system evaluation.
2. **[Resolving bridging references in unrestricted text](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/poesio-1997-resolving-bridging-references-unrestricted-text/)** *(1997 · 116 citations)* The paper tackles automatic interpretation of definite descriptions (DDs) in domain-independent written English, focusing on bridging references.
3. **[Acquiring Lexical Knowledge for Anaphora Resolution](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/poesio-2002-acquiring-lexical-knowledge-anaphora-resolution/)** *(2002 · 113 citations)* Resolving bridging references, such as "the kitchen" after "the house," needs lexical and commonsense knowledge that hand-built resources like WordNet often lack.
4. **[Towards resolution of bridging descriptions](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/vieira-1997-resolution-bridging-descriptions/)** *(1997 · 33 citations)* The paper investigates how to automatically resolve bridging definite descriptions: noun phrases with "the" whose antecedent has a different head noun, so the reader must infer a link between them.
5. **[Using Word Similarity Lists for Resolving Indirect Anaphora](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/gasperin-2004-word-similarity-lists-resolving-indirect/)** *(2004 · 18 citations)* The paper tackles indirect anaphora in Portuguese. These are coreferent definite descriptions whose head noun differs from the antecedent's head but is semantically related to it, for example through synonymy or hyponymy. Such cases cannot be resolved by head matching and need lexical knowledge.
