We use the InScript corpus to develop computational models for the prediction of discourse referents (DRs) and to evaluate their prediction accuracy. to the Mechanical Turk experiment (Figure 2), our referent prediction model is asked to guess the upcoming DR. knowledge improves predictions of upcoming referents and that the script model is the best among We also used the estimated models to predict referring expression type ./cache/work_2dw3vuoprfdbdnrfirx5jj7jme.pdf ./txt/work_2dw3vuoprfdbdnrfirx5jj7jme.txt
