"text": "Multiword expressions (\"MWEs\") are word combinations which have idiosyncratic properties relative to their component words (Sag et al., 2002; Baldwin and Kim, 2010) , such as taken aback or red tape. The need for an explicit model of MWEs has been shown to be important in NLP tasks including machine translation (Venkatapathy and Joshi, 2006) , parsing (Constant et al., 2012) , and keyphrase/index term extraction (Newman et al., 2012) . However, existing approaches to MWE identification/extraction typically target specific MWE types that are known to be prevalent in a given language, such as: (a) compound nouns in languages such as English (Copestake, 2003; \u00d3 S\u00e9aghdha, 2008) , German (Schulte im Walde et al., 2013) and Japanese (Tanaka and Baldwin, 2003) ; (b) light verb constructions (LVCs) in languages such as English (Butt, 2003) , Persian (Karimi-Doostan, 1997) and Italian (Alba-Salas, 2002) ; and (c) compound verbs in languages such as Japanese (Uchiyama et al., 2005) . Note here that the combination of highly-productive MWE types can vary greatly across languages: English is rich with compound nouns and LVCs are also common, but lacks compound verbs; Persian is rich with LVCs and adjective-noun compounds, but has very few compound nouns and compound verbs; and Japanese is rich with LVCs and compound nouns and verbs, but adjective-noun MWEs are rarer. Even for collocation extraction, this knowledge is generally assumed for a given language, in targeting only highly productive constructions such as adjective-noun or verb-noun collocations (Krenn and Evert, 2001; Pecina, 2008) .",

"text": "But what if the language of interest is one where no such prior knowledge exists, e.g. because it is a \"surprise\" language where rapid deployment of language technologies is required and there is no access to an informant with sufficient linguistic training to be able to inventorise the MWE types in the language (Oard, 2003; Maynard et al., 2003) ? Here, there is little expectation of success without an automatic method for determining the inventory and relative frequency of MWEs in a given language. This provides the motivation for this paper: can we develop a method for automatically profiling the MWE inventory of a novel language based simply on a monolingual corpus of that language, and a treebank in a second language such as English?",

Given the parser output over a monolingual corpus in the surprise language, we then apply one of two methods to extract our MWE profile: (1) a baseline method, where we simply extract out delexicalised dependency tuples of relation type mwe or compound (including the POS tags), aggregate the counts of the pos-relation-pos triples, and extract the most frequent triples; and (2) a supervised reranker over the delexicalised dependency tuples, to better deal with noise in the output of the delexicalised dependency parser.",

We find that there are a number of competing styles of annotation, and very different levels of thoroughness in the annotation of MWEs. As part of this, we perform an \"oracle\" analysis of MWE extraction based on the gold-standard treebank annotations for a given language, and find that the results vary greatly between languages, due to annotation divergences. Using the supervised reranking method, however, and incorporating more and more languages for training (but holding out the surprise language), we find that we are able to \"smooth\" annotation differences between languages.",

"text": "There is a wealth of research on MWE identification (i.e. distinguishing MWEs from non-idiosyncratic combinations at the token level) and extraction (i.e. determining at the type level which word combinations in a corpus are MWEs). Many of these methods are customised to particular MWE constructions which are known to exist in a given corpus, e.g. noun compounds (Lapata and Lascarides, 2003; Tanaka and Baldwin, 2003) , verb particle constructions (\"VPCs\": Baldwin and Villavicencio (2002; Baldwin (2005) ), determinerless prepositional phrases (Baldwin et al., 2004; van der Beek, 2005) , or compound verbs (Breen and Baldwin, 2009) . There is also a significant body of work on general-purpose MWE extraction, often based on statistical association measures applied to either a monolingual corpus (Evert and Krenn, 2005; Pecina, 2008; Ramisch, 2012) or a parallel corpus (Melamed, 1997; Moir\u00f3n and Tiedemann, 2006) . Even here, however, POS-based constraints are generally applied on the types of MWE that are extracted (e.g. noun-noun or verb-noun bigrams). There are also methods for identifying MWEs in context using supervised models (Diab and Bhutada, 2009; Li and Sporleder, 2010; Schneider et al., 2014) , which require exhaustive annotation of MWE token occurrences in a corpus. All of this research differs from our work in that it either assumes knowledge of the type(s) of MWE to extract for a given language, or requires explicitly annotated MWE data in that language.",

To evaluate the parser output, which is the baseline in this experiment, we use the generated dependency edges and labels, and evaluate this against the exhaustively-generated gold-standard. To evaluate our system's performance, we use the dependency edges given by the parser and aggregate the reranker's predicted scores at the level of the delexicalised dependency triples, as per the first experiment. Unlike the first experiment, we evaluate using ROC AUC over the token pairs instead of pos h , rel, pos d triples. Table 2 shows the AUC scores when English is used as the source language to parse the target language, and English is also used to train our reranking model. Our proposed model (\"Reranker\") produces above-baseline results for all target languages except German, Danish, Italian and Croatian. We observe a very high percentage (63%) of compounds being predicted as noun-noun compounds in German, which is a large part of the strong results for that language. In order to compare with a collocation extraction methods, we contrast this with a ranking based on the average PMI score for each dependency relation (\"PMI\").

For example, the number of MWE instances associated with ADV, advmod, NOUN is less than non-MWEs (MWE examples are before Christ, and before revolution).

The method is based on determination of MWEs in a source language from a dependency treebank, and training of a model over delexicalised dependency patterns for that language. This is then applied to a target language to rerank patterns, in terms of MWEhood. In our initial experiments, we used gold-standard dependency information for a treebank for the target language, and found the method to be highly successful at ranking dependency patterns. This both validated the method, as well as suggesting the potential for the use of the method in cross-checking the consistency of the UD treebanks. We then applied our method under the more realistic setting of having no gold-standard dependency data for the target language, but instead the output of a dependency parser induced for the target language based only on a POS-tagged monolingual corpus in the target language (and gold-standard data in the source language). We found the method to produce above-baseline results for the majority of languages tested, and that for the false positives associated with higher token frequencies, many of the associated tokens were actually true instances of MWEs (with the wrong dependency relation).",
