چکیده

The event structure (aktionsart) is a widely discussed issue for the representation of verbal semantics in languages. However, there is still problems for the classification of verbs into state, activity, accomplishment, achievement and semelfactive. It is also not clear where are the differences of them embedded in terms of lexical, semantic or syntactic levels. In this paper, we will give a discussion on the primitives of events from an ontological point of view. We suggest that event types should be discussed in the usage level of language. Based on the Generative Lexicon theory, we provide a semantic representation of verbs which can give a better explanation how the semantics of verbs and the composition with their complements can determine the event type they denote.

Named Entity Recognition in Persian Text using Deep Learning

Named entities recognition is a fundamental task in the field of natural language processing. It is also known as a subset of information extraction. The process of recognizing named entities aims at finding proper nouns in the text and classifying them into predetermined classes such as names of people, organizations, and places. In this paper, we propose a named entity recognizer which benefi...

Semantic event representation and recognition using syntactic attribute graph grammar

The representation and recognition of complex semantic events (e.g. illegal parking, stealing objects) is a challenging task for high-level understanding of video sequence. To solve this problem, an attribute graph grammar for events modeling is studied in this paper. This grammar models the variability of semantic events by a set of meaningful ‘‘event components” with the spatio-temporal const...
