Measuring Verb Similarity
The way we model semantic similarity is closely tied to our understanding of linguistic representations. We present several models of semantic similarity, based on di ering representational assumptions, and investigate their properties via comparison with human ratings of verb similarity. The results o er insight into the bases for human similarity judgments and provide a testbed for further in...
متن کاملVerb subcategorization frequencies: American English corpus data, methodological studies, and cross-corpus comparisons.
Verb subcategorization frequencies (verb biases) have been widely studied in psycholinguistics and play an important role in human sentence processing. Yet available resources on subcategorization frequencies suffer from limited coverage, limited ecological validity, and divergent coding criteria. Prior estimates of verb transitivity, for example, vary widely with corpus size, coverage, and cod...
متن کاملVerb Detection in Persian Corpus
A novel technique is introduced for verb and inflection detection in Persian texts. This recognition can be useful for preprocessing phase in natural language processing (NLP) and text mining like partof-speech (POS) tagging and sentence boundary detection (SBD) in Persian texts. Our technique employs structural information of Persian verb for the first phase of this detection and then uses the...
متن کاملPsycholinguistic and corpus-linguistic evidence for L2 constructions
In Construction Grammar, highly frequent syntactic configurations are assumed to be stored as symbolic units in the mental lexicon alongside words. Considering the example of gerund and infinitival complement constructions in English (She tried rocking the baby vs. She tried to rock the baby), this study combines corpus-linguistic and experimental evidence to investigate the question whether th...
متن کاملComparing and combining semantic verb classifications
In this article, we address the task of comparing and combining different semantic verb classifications within one language. We present a methodology for the manual analysis of individual resources on the level of semantic features. The resulting representations can be aligned across resources, and allow a contrastive analysis of these resources. In a case study on the Manner of Motion domain a...
