    abstract = {A wide range of parser and/or grammar evaluation methods have been reported in the literature. However, in most cases these evaluations take the parsers independently (intrinsic evaluations), and only in a few cases has the effect of different parsers in real applications been measured (extrinsic evaluations). This paper compares two evaluations of the Link Grammar parser and the Conexor Functional Dependency Grammar parser. The parsing systems, despite both being dependency-based, return different types of dependencies, making a direct comparison impossible. In the intrinsic evaluation, the accuracy of the parsers is compared independently by converting the dependencies into grammatical relations and using the methodology of \newcite{Carroll:1998} for parser comparison. In the extrinsic evaluation, the parsers' impact in a practical application is compared within the context of answer extraction. The differences in the results are significant.},

        abstract = {A wide variety of parser and/or grammar evaluation methods have been reported in the literature. However, in most cases these evaluations take the parsers independently (\emph{in vitro} evaluations), and only in a few cases has the effect of different parsers in real applications been measured (\emph{in vivo} evaluations). This paper compares two evaluations of the Link Grammar parser and the Conexor Functional Dependency Grammar parser. The parsing systems, despite both being dependency-based, return different types of dependencies, making a direct comparison impossible. In the first evaluation, the accuracy of the parsers is compared \emph{in vitro} by converting the dependencies into grammatical relations and using the methodology of \newcite{Carroll:1998} for parser comparison. In the second evaluation, the parsers' impact in a practical application is compared \emph{in vivo} within the context of answer extraction. The differences in the results are significant and raise questions on the usefulness of purely \emph{in vitro} evaluations.},

In the first stages of the cascade, we find chunks of several types (NP,VP,ADJP,ADVP,PP) and label them with their adverbial function (e.g. local, temporal). In the last stage, we assign grammatical relations to pairs of chunks. We studied the effect of adding several levels to this cascaded classifier and we found that even the less performing chunkers enhanced the performance of the relation finder.},

A discussion of their relative strengths and weaknesses motivates a new --- and we claim more informative and generally applicable --- technique of measuring parser accuracy, based on the use of grammatical relations. We conclude with some preliminary results of experiments in which we use this new scheme to evaluate a robust parser of English.},
