Semantic Annotation and Lexico-Syntactic Paraphrase
The IAMTC project (Interlingual Annotation of Multilingual Translation Corpora) is developing an interlingual representation framework for annotation of parallel corpora (English paired with Arabic, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish) with deep-semantic representations.

In the model a language task schema (modulated by a higher level of control) "reactively" inhibits potential competitors for production at the lemma level by virtue of their l...
