Resolving Pronouns in Twitter Streams: Context can Help!

Anietie Andy, Chris Callison-Burch, Derry Tanti Wijaya


Abstract
Many people live-tweet televised events like Presidential debates and popular TV-shows and discuss people or characters in the event. Naturally, many tweets make pronominal reference to these people/characters. We propose an algorithm for resolving personal pronouns that make reference to people involved in an event, in tweet streams collected during the event.
