Coreferences are collections of expressions that all represent the same
person, entity, or thing. For example, the text "Lauren loves dogs.
She would walk them all day.", there is a coreference consisting of
the token "Lauren" in the first sentence and the token "She" in the
second sentence. In the output given from this function, a row is
given for any mention of an entity; these can be linked using the
rid key.
cnlp_get_coreference(annotation)an annotation object
Returns an object of class c("tbl_df", "tbl", "data.frame")
containing one row for every coreference in the corpus.
The returned data frame includes at least the following columns:
"id" - integer. Id of the source document.
"rid" - integer. Relation ID.
"mid" - integer. Mention ID; unique to each coreference within a document.
"mention" - character. The mention as raw words from the text.
"mention_type" - character. One of "LIST", "NOMINAL", "PRONOMINAL", or "PROPER".
"number" - character. One of "PLURAL", "SINGULAR", or "UNKNOWN".
"gender" - character. One of "FEMALE", "MALE", "NEUTRAL", or "UNKNOWN".
"animacy" - character. One of "ANIMATE", "INANIMATE", or "UNKNOWN".
"sid" - integer. Sentence id of the coreference.
"tid" - integer. Token id at the start of the coreference.
"tid_end" - integer. Token id at the start of the coreference.
"tid_head" - integer. Token id of the head of the coreference.
