We present the approach taken by the
TurkuNLP group in the CRAFT Structural Annotation task, a shared task on dependency
parsing. Our approach builds primarily on
the Turku neural parser, a native dependency
parser that ranked among the best in the recent
CoNLL tasks on parsing Universal Dependencies. To adapt the parser to the biomedical
domain, we considered and evaluated a number of approaches, including the generation of
custom word embeddings, combination with
other in-domain resources, and the incorporation of information from named entity recognition. We achieved a labeled attachment score
of 89.7%, the best result among task participants.
