چکیده

FrameNet frames have been used to develop lexical databases and annotated corpora for different languages. This paper analyses the use of FrameNet frames to build a legal ontology for the Brazilian Law. In order to discuss the problems of such approach to ontology development, the lexical units evoking the Criminal_process frame were contrasted in English and Portuguese. Frame divergence between languages has consequences not only for legal ontology development but also for the development of legal lexical resources, such as lexical databases and corpora annotation.

Using Ontologies for Semi-automatic Linking VerbaLex with FrameNet

This work presents a method of linking verbs and their valency frames in VerbaLex database developed at the Centre for NLP at the Faculty of Informatics Masaryk University to the frames in Berkeley FrameNet. While completely manual work may take a long time, the proposed semi-automatic approach requires a smaller amount of human effort to reach sufficient results. The method of linking VerbaLex...

Integration of Linguistic Resources for Verb Classification: FrameNet Frame, WordNet Verb and Suggested Upper Merged Ontology

The work described in this paper was originally motivated by the construction of a lexical semantic knowledge base for analysis of Ideational Metafunction of language in Systemic Functional Grammar and the Generalized Upper Model ontology. The work involves mapping FrameNet Frames with Ideational Meanings and instantiating WordNet Verb as the meaning evoking linguistic elements. As the work evo...

Statistical Models for Frame-Semantic Parsing

We present a brief history and overview of statistical methods in frame-semantic parsing – the automatic analysis of text using the theory of frame semantics. We discuss how the FrameNet lexicon and frameannotated datasets have been used by statistical NLP researchers to build usable, state-of-the-art systems. We also focus on future directions in frame-semantic parsing research, and discuss NL...

Towards a Linking of FrameNet and SUMO

Most end-user applications of natural language processing such as question answering or information retrieval – and especially a research-oriented task like textual entailment – need to process entailment and contradiction in one way or another. In order to detect entailment and contradiction, a system needs to access very different kinds of resources, such as lexicons, semantic word nets or kn...
