10 paper cards in the Research library · 2009–2026

Zdeněk Žabokrtský wrote 10 of the papers Mova reads, in 2009–2026, most of them on [Coreference resolution](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/coreference-resolution/), [Universal Dependencies](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/universal-dependencies/), [Machine translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/machine-translation/); often with [Martin Popel](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/martin-popel/), [Michal Novák](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/michal-novak/), [Anna Nedoluzhko](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/anna-nedoluzhko/).

## Papers

1. **[Findings of the Fifth Shared Task on Multilingual Coreference Resolution: Expanding Datasets for Long-Range Entities](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/novak-2026-findings-fifth-shared-task-multilingual/)** *(2026)* The fifth edition of the multilingual coreference shared task, held with CODI-CRAC 2026, again asked for mention detection and identity coreference clustering.
2. **[Findings of the Fourth Shared Task on Multilingual Coreference Resolution: Can LLMs Dethrone Traditional Approaches?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/novak-2025-findings-fourth-shared-task-multilingual/)** *(2025)* This overview reports the fourth edition of the multilingual coreference shared task at CODI-CRAC 2025. Participants had to detect mentions, including zero mentions in pro-drop languages, and cluster them by identity coreference. The data came from CorefUD 1.3, with 22 datasets in 17 languages used in the task; new…
3. **[CorefUD 1.0: Coreference Meets Universal Dependencies](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/nedoluzhko-2022-corefud-1-0-coreference-meets/)** *(2022)* Syntax has a shared multilingual annotation standard in Universal Dependencies, but coreference resolution has had no comparable standard: corpora define the phenomena differently and use different formats, so most systems are evaluated only on English OntoNotes.
4. **[Coreference meets Universal Dependencies – a pilot experiment on harmonizing coreference datasets for 11 languages](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/nedoluzhko-2021-coreference-meets-universal-dependencies/)** *(2021)* The report converts 17 existing coreference datasets for 11 languages into one scheme based on Universal Dependencies.
5. **[Do UD Trees Match Mention Spans in Coreference Annotations?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/coref-2021-popel-do-ud-trees-match-mention/)** *(2021)* Coreference mention spans in most corpora are plain token intervals, drawn without reference to syntax. The paper asks how often those spans match the subtrees of UD trees. It hand-checks mismatches in nine CorefUD datasets for eight languages. In eight of the nine, the trees come from UDPipe; English-GUM is the only…
6. **[Udapi: Universal API for Universal Dependencies](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/popel-2017-udapi-universal-api-universal-dependencies/)** *(2017)* As UD and the CoNLL-U format spread, ad hoc scripts for processing treebanks became a common source of subtle bugs, such as forgetting to renumber nodes after a deletion.
7. **[Coordination Structures in Dependency Treebanks](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/aclbulk-2013-popel-coordination-structures-dependency-treebanks/)** *(2013)* A dependency tree cannot show the symmetric relation between conjuncts without a convention, so every treebank picks one.
8. **[Translation of "It" in a Deep Syntax Framework](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/novak-2013-translation-it-deep-syntax-framework/)** *(2013)* English "it" has no single Czech counterpart. It may be a personal pronoun or zero anaphor, a neuter demonstrative "to", or nothing at all in a cleft or pleonastic construction. The paper builds a discriminative classifier for these three classes inside the TectoMT deep-syntax system. The training data is the Prague…
9. **[Formemes in English-Czech Deep Syntactic MT](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/dusek-2012-formemes-english-czech-deep-syntactic/)** *(2012)* A formeme is a short label for the surface morpho-syntax of a node in a deep dependency tree. It has three parts: a syntactic part of speech, an optional preposition or conjunction, and a form such as a case number or a finite-clause marker. The paper revises the formemes used in the TectoMT English-Czech system to…
10. **[Hidden Markov Tree Model in Dependency-based Machine Translation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zabokrtsky-2009-hidden-markov-tree-model-dependency/)** *(2009)* The paper applies Hidden Markov Tree Models (HMTM), a tree version of the hidden Markov chain, to the transfer step of a tree-based MT system.
