We propose that such a view of typology has significant potential in the future, including in language modeling in low-resource scenarios.

Creoles represent an under-explored and marginalized group of languages, with few available resources for NLP research. While the genealogical ties between Creoles and a number of highly-resourced languages imply a significant potential for transfer learning, this potential is hampered due to this lack of annotated data.

While information from the field of linguistic typology has the potential to improve performance on NLP tasks, reliable typological data is a prerequisite.

We recommend future work to include an operationalization of 'typological diversity' that empirically justifies the diversity of language samples.

We introduce a modular, hybrid coreference resolution system that extends a rule-based baseline with three neural classifiers for the subtasks mention detection, mention attributes (gender, animacy, number), and pronoun resolution.
