چکیده

This paper details the integration into Port4NooJ of 15 lexicon-grammar tables describing the distributional properties of 4,248 human intransitive adjectives. The properties described in these tables enable the recognition and generation of semantico-syntactically equivalent adjectival constructions where the adjective has a predicative function. These properties also establish semantic relationships between adjective, noun and verb predicates, allowing new paraphrasing capabilities that were described in NooJ grammars. The new dictionary of human intransitive adjectives created by merging the information on those tables with the Port4NooJ homograph adjectives is comprised of 5,177 entries. The enhanced Port4NooJ is being used in eSPERTo, a NooJ-based paraphrase generation platform.

In this paper, we attempt to capture the regularity underlying these classes of paraphrases, focusing on the paraphrasing of Japanese light-verb constructions (LVCs). We propose a paraphrasing model for LVCs that is b...

Clustering of Russian Adjective-Noun Constructions using Word Embeddings

This paper presents a method of automatic construction extraction from a large corpus of Russian. The term ‘construction’ here means a multi-word expression in which a variable can be replaced with another word from the same semantic class, for example, a glass of [water/juice/milk]. We deal with constructions that consist of a noun and its adjective modifier. We propose a method of grouping su...
