Abstract

The paper is devoted to the problem of anaphora resolution in computational linguistics. Anaphora resolution is required in most tasks in Natural Language Processing. The aim of the research is to investigate how the tool for anaphora resolution cope with its task. The analysis suggests that tools for the task need to be improved and more practical work in the field should be done. The results of the research can find application in further studies and attempts to improve the effectiveness of anaphora resolution tools.
