Event Coreference Between Two Sentences

Unlike object coreference, event coreference has rarely been studied in detail, except for (pro)nominal phrases referring to an event. We focus here on event coreference between two sentences. This study will put forward unusual linguistic phenomena, e.g. unusual coreference relations between two indefinite NPs, or anaphoric relations between predicates or clauses. These phenomena, which question well-established myths, have to be taken into account in text understanding and text generation.
