• Title: Context Dependent Semantic Parsing: A Survey
• Authors: Zhuang Li, Lizhen Qu, Gholamreza Haffari
• Abstract summary: semantic parsing is the task of translating natural language utterances into machine-readable meaning representations. Currently, most semantic parsing methods are not able to utilize contextual information. To address this issue, context dependent semantic parsing has recently drawn a lot of attention.

• Abstract: Semantic parsing is the task of translating natural language utterances into machine-readable meaning representations. Currently, most semantic parsing methods are not able to utilize contextual information (e.g. dialogue and comments history), which has a great potential to boost semantic parsing performance. To address this issue, context dependent semantic parsing has recently drawn a lot of attention. In this survey, we investigate progress on the methods for the context dependent semantic parsing, together with the current datasets and tasks. We then point out open problems and challenges for future research in this area. The collected resources for this topic are available at:https://github.com/zhuang-li/Contextual-Semantic-Parsing-Paper-List.

  We develop a dataset where user questions are annotated with Sparql parses and system answers correspond to execution results thereof. We present two different semantic parsing approaches and highlight the challenges of the task. Our dataset and models are released at https://github.com/Edinburgh/SPICE.

  Currently, all existing topic tracking methods use lexical information by matching word usage. We explore a novel semantic-based method using word embeddings. Our results show that a semantic-based approach to topic tracking is on par with the lexical approach but makes different mistakes.

• Training Naturalized Semantic Parsers with Very Little Data [10.709587018625275]
  State-of-the-art (SOTA) semantics are seq2seq architectures based on large language models that have been pretrained on vast amounts of text. Recent work has explored a reformulation of semantic parsing whereby the output sequences are themselves natural language sentences. We show that this method delivers new SOTA few-shot performance on the Overnight dataset.

  Unsupervised dependency parsing aims to learn a dependency from sentences that have no annotation of their correct parse trees. Despite its difficulty, unsupervised parsing is an interesting research direction because of its capability of utilizing almost unlimited unannotated text data.

  This paper addresses the problem of text-to-video temporal grounding, which aims to identify the time interval in a video semantically relevant to a text query. We tackle this problem using a novel regression-based model that learns to extract a collection of mid-level features for semantic phrases in a text query. The proposed method effectively predicts the target time interval by exploiting contextual information from local to global.

  This paper defines and studies a new task called Context-Aware Semantic Expansion (CASE) Given a seed term in a sentential context, we aim to suggest other terms that well fit the context as the seed. We show that annotations for this task can be harvested at scale from existing corpora, in a fully automatic manner.
