In-depth Exploitation of Noun and Verb Semantics to Identify Causation in Verb-Noun Pairs
Recognition of causality is important to achieve natural language discourse understanding. Previous approaches rely on shallow linguistic features. In this work, we propose to identify causality in verbnoun pairs by exploiting deeper semantics of nouns and verbs. Particularly, we acquire and employ three novel types of knowledge: (1) semantic classes of nouns with a high and low tendency to enc...
متن کاملRecognizing Causality in Verb-Noun Pairs via Noun and Verb Semantics
Several supervised approaches have been proposed for causality identification by relying on shallow linguistic features. However, such features do not lead to improved performance. Therefore, novel sources of knowledge are required to achieve progress on this problem. In this paper, we propose a model for the recognition of causality in verb-noun pairs by employing additional types of knowledge...
متن کاملCortical signatures of noun and verb production.
Categories like "noun" and "verb" represent the basic units of grammar in all human languages, and the retrieval of categorical information associated with words is an essential step in the production of grammatical speech. Studies of brain-damaged patients suggest that knowledge of nouns and verbs can be spared or impaired selectively; however, the neuroanatomical correlates of this dissociati...
متن کاملThe Verb Mutability Effect: Noun and Verb Semantics in English and Japanese
To what extent are the processing patterns for nouns and verbs universal across languages? Under conditions of semantic strain, English speakers tend to adapt the meaning of the verb to fit the noun in the sentence. We asked Japanese and English speakers to paraphrase simple sentences of the form “The noun verbed,” varying in semantic strain (e.g., “The blender talked”). We then assessed the de...
متن کاملInterpreting Semantic Relations in Noun Compounds via Verb Semantics
We propose a novel method for automatically interpreting compound nouns based on a predefined set of semantic relations. First we map verb tokens in sentential contexts to a fixed set of seed verbs using WordNet::Similarity and Moby’s Thesaurus. We then match the sentences with semantic relations based on the semantics of the seed verbs and grammatical roles of the head noun and modifier. Based...
