[Corpora-List] software tool for reference resolution

[Joel Tetreault]

Hi Kevin, you're right - years ago I implemented two Centering 
algorithms (BFP and LRC) as well as Michael Strube's S-List algorithm. 
They worked on Penn-Treebank style parses.  Details can be found here:


A Corpus-Based Evaluation of Centering and Pronoun Resolution. 
Computational Linguistics. 27(4): p.507-520.


To the original poster/others: if you're interested, I can help you out 
with code, though all these were written in LISP ten years ago.  My 
feeling is that with the advances made in freely available parsers and NER 
systems, as well as how straightforward many of the above algorithms are, 
it's probably faster to code up one's own implementation of Centering.
