Argument co-occurrence matrix as a description of verb valence

A Study of Valence & Argument Integration in Chinese Verb-Resultative Complement

Verb resultative complement (VC) is a common structure of Chinese language with abundant forms of collocation. It makes much sense for VC research to analyze the general rules of argument integration in light of diversities of predicate & complement and the complexity of argument integration in the forming of VC with predicate & complement. This article has analyzed and summarized the existing ...

The Valence Patterns of Japanese Verbs Extracted From The EDR Corpus

This paper describes research on particular verb valences obtained from actual linguistic data. We created verb valence data using data from the EDR Co-occurrence Dictionary as our source. The EDR Co-occurrence Dictionary is coded with syntactic governing-dependent relation tags and semantic tags. The syntactic governing-dependent relations data in the EDR Co-occurrence Dictionary however, is e...

Valence extraction using EM selection and co-occurrence matrices

This paper discusses two new procedures for extracting verb valences from raw texts, with an application to the Polish language. The first novel technique, the EM selection algorithm, performs unsupervised disambiguation of valence frame forests, obtained by applying a non-probabilistic deep grammar parser and some post-processing to the text. The second new idea concerns filtering of incorrect...

Modeling Subcategorization through Co-occurrence: a Computational Lexical Resource for Italian Verbs

1. Goals and Methodology The aim of this abstract is to introduce LexIt, a freely available lexical resource to characterize Italian verb argument properties in terms of distributional information automatically extracted from large corpora with state-of-the-art computational linguistics methods. Research on automatic extraction of subcategorization frames from corpora has a long tradition in co...
