Noun/Verb Inference

چکیده
We present a system which combines logical inference with a semantic calculus producing normalised semantic representations that are robust to surface di erences which are irrelevant for entailment detection. We focus on the detection of entailment relations between sentence pairs involving noun/verb alternations and we show that the system correctly predicts a range of interactions between basic noun/verb predications and semantic phenomena such as quanti cation, negation and non factive contexts.

Acquiring Inference Rules with Temporal Constraints by Using Japanese Coordinated Sentences and Noun-Verb Co-occurrences
This paper shows that inference rules with temporal constraints can be acquired by using verb-verb co-occurrences in Japanese coordinated sentences and verb-noun cooccurrences. For example, our unsupervised acquisition method could obtain the inference rule If someone enforces a law, usually someone enacts the law at the same time as or before the enforcing of the law since the verbs enact ...
متن کاملDiscovering Speci c Semantic Relationships between Nouns and Verbs in a Specialized French Corpus
Recent literature in computational terminology has shown an increasing interest in identifying various semantic relationships between terms. In this paper, we propose an original strategy to nd speci c noun-verb combinations in a specialized corpus. We focus on verbs that convey a meaning of realization. To acquire these noun-verb pairs, we use asares, a machine learning technique that automati...

متن کاملA Model of Word Meaning Inference Development in Child
Many researchers of infant language acquisition have reported that three-year-old infants can properly expand the meaning of a noun to a new object. However, for the verb, Imai et al. reported that infants gradually acquire a proper expansion of verb meaning from 3 years to 5 years old. In this study, we analyze the experimental data with a statistical model in order to elucidate the structure ...
متن کاملEffects of subthalamic deep brain stimulation on noun/verb generation and selection from competing alternatives in Parkinson's disease.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Impaired generation of verbs relative to nouns has been reported in Parkinson's disease (PD) and has been associated with the frontal pathophysiology of PD. The aim of the present study was to measure noun/verb generation abilities in PD and to determine whether noun/verb generation is affected by stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). PATIENTS AND METHODS 8 partici...
