Efficiency Analysis of Deeplearning4J Neural Network Classifiers in Development of Transition Based Dependency Parsers

Dependency parsing is a complex process in natural language text processing, text to semantic transformation. The efficiency improvement of dependency parsing is a current and an active research area in the NLP community. The paper presents four transition-based dependency parser models with implementation using DL4J classifiers. The efficiency of the proposed models were tested with Hungarian language corpora. The parsing model uses a data representation form based on lightweight embedding and a novel morphological-description-vector format is proposed for the input layer. Based on the test experiments on parsing Hungarian text documents, the proposed list-based transitions parsers outperform the widespread stack-based variants.
