Automatic Selectional Preference Acquisition for Latin Verbs

We present a system that automatically induces Selectional Preferences (SPs) for Latin verbs from two treebanks by using Latin WordNet. Our method overcomes some of the problems connected with data sparseness and the small size of the input corpora. We also suggest a way to evaluate the acquired SPs on unseen events extracted from other Latin corpora.

Domain Adaptation of a Dependency Parser with a Class-Class Selectional Preference Model

When porting parsers to a new domain, many of the errors are related to wrong attachment of out-of-vocabulary words. Since there is no available annotated data to learn the attachment preferences of the target domain words, we attack this problem using a model of selectional preferences based on domainspecific word classes. Our method uses Latent Dirichlet Allocations (LDA) to learn a domain-sp...

Three New Probabilistic Models for Dependency Parsing: An Exploration

After presenting a novel O(n) parsing algorithm for dependency grammar, we develop three contrasting ways to stochasticize it. We propose (a) a lexical affinity model where words struggle to modify each other, (b) a sense tagging model where words fluctuate randomly in their selectional preferences, and (c) a generative model where the speaker fleshes out each word’s syntactic and conceptual st...

Latent Semantic Clustering of German Verbs with Treebank Data

Treebank data have been utilized as data sources for a wide range of tasks in computational linguistics, including statistical parsing, anaphora resolution, induction of valence lexica, etc. More recently, researchers have experimented with extracting semantic information from syntactically annotated data. Here, treebank data have been used for the purposes of identifying selectional preference...

An Experiment On Learning Appropriate Selectional Restrictions From A Parsed Corpus

We present a methodology to extract Selectional Restrictions at a variable level of abstract ion from phrasally analyzed corpora. The method relays ia the use of a wide-coverage noun taxonomy and a statistical measure of the co-occurrence of linguistic items. Some experimental results about the performance of the method are provided.
