right-branching result do not match with that presented in the paper

[SyahX]

Hi,
I am trying to compute right-branching and upper bound baselines on the WSJ10 dataset. When I use the code in prpn to evaluation, I get 56.68 (right-branching) and 84.06 (upper bound), different from 61.7(RBranch) 88.1(upper bound) in the paper. But when I use EvalB to do the evaluation, I get 61.7(RBranch) 88.1(upper bound).
So is that mean the way to evaluate the right-branching structure is different from prpn model? Could you please show the right way to compute right-branching and upper bound baselines on the WSJ10 dataset?

Thanks,
Yunfan

I think the discrepancy is due to sentence-level F1 (adopted by PRPN) vs corpus-level F1 (adopted by EVALB and previous works). Thus the numbers are not exactly comparable, though they are in the general ballpark. There does seem to be a lack of consistency across grammar induction papers (preprocessing, evaluation metric, including sentence-level span vs not, etc.) to make inter-paper comparison difficult to say the least.

Quick question, what did you get for the right branching baselines on the entire dataset?

40.348, right branching baseline for WSJ40

Thanks for pointing this out. I am using the baseline results from previous papers. Could you push the code for evaluation with EvalB?
