Centering — Grammatical Role Cf Ranking #

@cite{kameyama-1986} @cite{gordon-grosz-gilliom-1993} @cite{grosz-joshi-weinstein-1995}

The English-default Cf ranking, by grammatical role: SUBJECT > OBJECT > OTHER.

@cite{grosz-joshi-weinstein-1995} §5 surveys the evidence (their examples 11–14) that grammatical role is the major determinant of Cf ranking in English. @cite{kameyama-1986} argued for grammatical role over @cite{sidner-1979}'s focus-based proposal; the @cite{gordon-grosz-gilliom-1993} repeated-name penalty experiments provide independent empirical support.
