Abstract: Most natural language utterances are inherently ambiguous, which results in semantic under specification. Yet, despite the omnipresence of ambiguity, human communication still succeeds in most cases and even displays a remarkable robustness – quite in contrast to the majority of natural language applications today. The reason for this is that in processing an ambiguous utterance humans also integrate information from sources other than the utterance itself and thus have access to additional knowledge to enrich the semantic specification that guides disambiguation. One important such source of additional semantic knowledge in humans is sensory input from cross-modal perception. In this paper we describe a system architecture motivated by effects during human sentence processing which permits to study the integration of cross-modal context knowledge in syntactic parsing. We hypothesize that integrating cross-modal context into syntactic constraint dependency parsing will significant ly and substantially improve the accuracy of structural ambiguity resolution. (More)
