Many knowledge acquisition tasks are tightly dependent on fundamental analysis technologies, such as part of speech (POS) tagging and parsing. Dependency parsing, in particular, has been widely employed for the acquisition of knowledge related to predicate-argument structures. For such tasks, the dependency parsing performance can determine quality of acquired knowledge, regardless of target languages. Therefore, reducing dependency parsing errors and selecting high quality dependencies is of primary importance. In this study, we present a language-independent approach for automatically selecting high quality dependencies from automatic parses. By considering several aspects that affect the accuracy of dependency parsing, we created a set of features for supervised classification of reliable dependencies. Experimental results on seven languages show that our approach can effectively select high quality dependencies from dependency parses.
