InScript: Narrative texts annotated with script information
This provides a new dataset for researchers in natural language processing to analyze script structures, but it is incremental as it focuses on data creation rather than novel methods.
The authors introduced the InScript corpus, a collection of 1,000 stories across 10 scenarios annotated with script information, including event and participant types and coreference, to serve as a resource for studying script knowledge in NLP.
This paper presents the InScript corpus (Narrative Texts Instantiating Script structure). InScript is a corpus of 1,000 stories centered around 10 different scenarios. Verbs and noun phrases are annotated with event and participant types, respectively. Additionally, the text is annotated with coreference information. The corpus shows rich lexical variation and will serve as a unique resource for the study of the role of script knowledge in natural language processing.
