An Experiment On Learning Appropriate Selectional Restrictions From A Parsed Corpus

متن کاملOn Learning more Appropriate Selectional Restrictions
We present some variations affecting the association measure and thresholding on a technique for learning Selectional Restrictions from on-line corpora. It uses a wide-coverage noun taxonomy and a statistical measure to generalize the appropriate semantic classes. Evaluation measures for the Selectional Restrictions learning task are discussed. Finally, an experimental evaluation of these varia...
متن کاملOn the Interaction of Grammatical and Processing Restrictions in Derivational Morphology
There is a long-standing debate about the principles and mechanisms that constrain the combinatorial properties of affixes, in particular of English suffixes. One group of scholars argues for the existence of lexical strata with strong restrictions holding between the different strata. This view is disputed by scholars who claim that it is selectional restrictions of individual suffixes that ar...

متن کاملSelection Restrictions Acquisition from Corpora
This paper describes an automatic clustering strategy for acquiring selection restrictions. We use a knowledge-poor method merely based on word cooccurrence within basic syntactic constructions; hence, neither semantic tagged corpora nor man-made lexical resources are needed for generalising semantic restrictions. Our strategy relies on two basic linguistic assumptions. First, we assume that tw...
