Abstract

We present dependency-based n-gram models for general-purpose, widecoverage, probabilistic sentence realisation. Our method linearises unordered dependencies in input representations directly rather than via the application of grammar rules, as in traditional chartbased generators. The method is simple, efficient, and achieves competitive accuracy and complete coverage on standard English (Penn-II, 0.7440 BLEU, 0.05 sec/sent) and Chinese (CTB6, 0.7123 BLEU, 0.14 sec/sent) test data.
