Abstract

We present a perspective on parser evaluation in a context where the goal of parsing is to extract meaning from a sentence. Using this perspective, we show why current parser evaluation metrics are not suitable for evaluating parsers that produce logical-form semantics and present an evaluation metric that is suitable, analysing some of the characteristics of this new metric.
