On the one hand, it attempts to explore several machine learning models for pronoun resolution in Turkish, a language not sufficiently studied with respect to anaphora resolution and rarely being subjected to machine learning experiments. On the other hand, this paper offers an evaluation of the classification performances of the learning models in order to gain insight into the question of how to match a model to the task at hand. In addition to the expected observation that each model should be tuned to an optimum level of expressive power so as to avoid underfitting and overfitting, the results also suggest that non-linear models properly tuned to avoid overfitting outperform linear ones when applied to the data used in our experiments.
