  abstract  = {Because syntactic structures and spans of multiword expressions (MWEs) are
	independently annotated in many English syntactic corpora, they are generally
	inconsistent with respect to one another, which is harmful to the
	implementation of an aggregate system. In this work, we construct a corpus that
	ensures consistency between dependency structures and MWEs, including named
	entities. Further, we explore models that predict both MWE-spans and an
	MWE-aware dependency structure. Experimental results show that our joint model
	using additional MWE-span features achieves an MWE recognition improvement of
	1.35 points over a pipeline model.},
