Coreferential chains with non-specific and generic reference in Czech
Pergler, Jiří ; Lehečková, Eva (advisor) ; Zikánová, Šárka (referee)
The thesis dwells on the coreference relations in the text and their classification based on the reference types. In Chapter 2, I quote the main principles of the annotation of the textual coreference in the Prague Dependency Treebank, focusing especially on the division of the types of the coreferential relations, the type 0 and the type NR. In Chapter 3, I point out some problems connected with this division, which result particularly from the too broad definition of the type NR. In Chapters 4 and 5, I introduce some of the important literature in the field of reference and genericity. In Chapter 6, I propose my own typology of the referential relations which consists of four types based on the criterion of genericity (individual and generic reference) and the criterion of specificity (specific and non-specific reference). I also deal with the possibility of the referential expressions to participate in the coreferential relations and demonstrate that the proposed scheme is more suitable for the description of some complicated phenomena than the scheme employed in the Prague Dependency Treebank. In Chapter 7, I show how the proposed scheme can be used by the analysis of the coreferential relations in several texts.
