Abstract
An antecedent determining method is performed by at least one processor, and includes obtaining statement information, and determining whether a pronoun exists in the statement information. The method further includes extracting candidate antecedents and lexical features of the candidate antecedents, from the statement information, in response to the pronoun being found in the statement information, and determining, based on the lexical features of the candidate antecedents, a target antecedent that is referred to by the pronoun, among the candidate antecedents.
