چکیده

Abstract We report on a recently initiated project which aims at building a multi-layered parallel treebank of English and German. Particular attention is devoted to a dedicated predicate-argument layer which is used for aligning translationally equivalent sentences of the two languages. We describe both our conceptual decisions and aspects of their technical realisation. We discuss some selected problems and conclude with a few remarks on how this project relates to similar projects in the field.

Annotating the Propositions in the Penn Chinese Treebank

In this paper, we describe an approach to annotate the propositions in the Penn Chinese Treebank. We describe how diathesis alternation patterns can be used to make coarse sense distinctions for Chinese verbs as a necessary step in annotating the predicate-structure of Chinese verbs. We then discuss the representation scheme we use to label the semantic arguments and adjuncts of the predicates....

Annotating the Predicate-Argument Structure of Chinese Nominalizations

This paper describes the Chinese NomBank Project, the goal of which is to annotate the predicate-argument structure of nominalized predicates in Chinese. The Chinese Nombank extends the general framework of the English and Chinese Proposition Banks to the annotation of nominalized predicates and adds a layer of semantic annotation to the Chinese Treebank. We first outline the scope of the work ...

Linking Flat Predicate Argument Structures

This report presents an approach to enriching flat and robust predicate argument structures with more fine-grained semantic information, extracted from underspecified semantic representations and encoded in Minimal Recursion Semantics (MRS). Such representations are provided by a hand-built HPSG grammar with a wide linguistic coverage. A specific semantic representation, called linked predicate...

The Tüba-D/Z Treebank: Annotating German with a Context-Free Backbone

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to describe the T üBa-D/Z treebank of written German and to compare it to the independently developed TIGER treebank (Brants et al., 2002). Both treebanks, TIGER and T üBa-D/Z, use an annotation framework that is based on phrase structure grammar and that is enhanced by a level of predicate-argument structure. The comparison between the annotation schemes o...

Hindi Syntax: Annotating Dependency, Lexical Predicate-Argument Structure, and Phrase Structure

This paper describes a treebanking project for Hindi/Urdu. We are annotating dependency syntax, lexical predicate-argument structure, and phrase structure syntax in a coordinated and partly automated manner. The paper focuses on choices in syntactic representation, and the stages we think are most appropriate for annotating differnt types of information.
