Abstract

We describe a system for contextually appropriate anaphor and pronoun generation for Turkish. It uses binding theory and centering theory to model local and nonlocal references. We describe the rules for Turkish, and their computational treatment. A cascaded method for anaphor and pronoun generation is proposed for handling pro-drop and discourse constraints on pronominalization. The system has been tested as a stand-alone nominal expression generator, and also as a reference planning component of a transfer-based MT system.
