The TIGER 700 RMRS Bank: RMRS Construction from Dependencies
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a treebank conversion method by which we construct an RMRS bank for HPSG parser evaluation from the TIGER Dependency Bank. Our method effectively performs automatic RMRS semantics construction from functional dependencies, following the semantic algebra of (Copestake et al., 2001). We present the semantics construction mechanism, and focus on some special phenomena. Automatic conversion is followed by manual validation. First evaluation results yield high precision of the automatic semantics construction rules.

Projecting RMRS from TIGER Dependencies
We present a method for automatic RMRS semantics construction from dependency structures, following the semantic algebra of Copestake et al. (2001). We have applied this method to a subset of the TIGER Dependency Bank for German (Forst et al., 2004) to obtain a semantic treebank for (HPSG) parser evaluation. We describe the semantics construction mechanism and give evaluation figures from manua...
متن کاملTiger 700
This paper documents the TIGER 700 RMRS Treebank which has been obtained as the result of a software project. The treebank is a semantic projection from a subset of the TIGER Dependency Bank and was derived automatically, using treebank conversion methods. In a second phase, it will be manually validated and corrections will be made as necessary, supported by an interactive editing tool.
متن کاملConstraint-based RMRS Construction from Shallow Grammars
Semantic formalisms such as MRS [Copestake et al., 2003], UDRT [Reyle, 1993], or CLLS [Egg et al., 2001] provide elegant solutions for the treatment of semantic ambiguities in terms of underspecification. These semantic formalisms are not constrained to specific syntactic frameworks. MRS, for example, is mainly used with HPSG grammars, but may also be built from LFG grammars using co-descriptio...
متن کاملConstraint-based RMRS Construction from Shallow Grammars
We present a constraint-based syntax-semantics interface for the construction of RMRS (Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics) representations from shallow grammars. The architecture is designed to allow modular interfaces to existing shallow grammars of various depth – ranging from chunk grammars to context-free stochastic grammars. We define modular semantics construction principles in a typed fe...
متن کاملAcquiring Ontological Relationships from Wikipedia Using RMRS
We investigate the extraction of ontologies from biological text using a semantic representation derived from a robust parser. The use of a semantic representation avoids the problems that traditional pattern-based approaches have with complex syntactic constructions and long-distance dependencies. The discovery of taxonomic relationships is explored in a corpus consisting of 12,200 animal-rela...
