Building a class-based verb lexicon using TAGs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a class-based approach to building a verb lexicon that makes explicit the close relation between syntax and semantics for Levin classes. We have used a Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammar to capture the syntax associated with each verb class and have added semantic predicates to each tree, which allow for a compositional interpretation.

متن کاملClass-Based Construction of a Verb Lexicon
We present an approach to building a verb lexicon compatible with WordNet but with explicitly stated syntactic and semantic information, using Levin verb classes to systematically construct lexical entries. By using verb classes we capture generalizations about verb behavior and reduce the effort needed to construct the lexicon. The syntactic frames for the verb classes are represented by a Lex...
متن کاملIntegrating compositional semantics into a verb lexicon
We present a class-based approach to building a verb lexicon that makes explicit the close association between syntax and semantics for Levin classes. We have used Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars to capture the syntax associated with each verb class and have augmented the trees to include selectional restrictions. In addition, semantic predicates are associated with each tree, which allow f...
متن کاملClassifying Arabic Verbs Using Sibling Classes
In the effort of building a verb lexicon classifying the most used verbs in Arabic and providing information about their syntax and semantics (Mousser, 2010), the problem of classes over-generation arises because of the overt morphology of Arabic, which codes not only agreement and inflection relations but also semantic information related to thematic arity or other semantic information like ”i...
متن کاملBuilding a Large Lexicon of Complex Valency Frames
This paper describes the process of building and using a new comprehensive lexicon of Czech verb valency frames based on complex valency frames. The main features of the lexicon entries are designed to bring important semantic information to computer processing of predicate constructions in running texts. The most notable features include two-level semantic labels with linkage to the Princeton ...
