Wide-Coverage Semantic Representations from a CCG Parser
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows how to construct semantic representations from the derivations produced by a wide-coverage CCG parser. Unlike the dependency structures returned by the parser itself, these can be used directly for semantic interpretation. We demonstrate that well-formed semantic representations can be produced for over 97% of the sentences in unseen WSJ text. We believe this is a major step towards widecoverage semantic interpretation, one of the key objectives of the field of NLP.

Building compositional semantics and higher-order inference system for a wide-coverage Japanese CCG parser
This paper presents a system that compositionally maps outputs of a wide-coverage Japanese CCG parser onto semantic representations and performs automated inference in higher-order logic. The system is evaluated on a textual entailment dataset. It is shown that the system solves inference problems that focus on a variety of complex linguistic phenomena, including those that are difficult to rep...
متن کاملBuilding Deep Dependency Structures with a Wide-Coverage CCG Parser
This paper describes a wide-coverage statistical parser that uses Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG) to derive dependency structures. The parser differs from most existing wide-coverage treebank parsers in capturing the long-range dependencies inherent in constructions such as coordination, extraction, raising and control, as well as the standard local predicate-argument dependencies. A set o...

متن کاملThe Importance of Supertagging for Wide-Coverage CCG Parsing
This paper describes the role of supertagging in a wide-coverage CCG parser which uses a log-linear model to select an analysis. The supertagger reduces the derivation space over which model estimation is performed, reducing the space required for discriminative training. It also dramatically increases the speed of the parser. We show that large increases in speed can be obtained by tightly int...
متن کاملBootstrapping A Wide - Coverage CCG from FB -
A number of researchers have noted the similarities between LTAGs and CCGs. Observing this resemblance, we felt that we could make use of the wide-coverage grammar developed in the XTAG project to build a wide-coverage CCG. To our knowledge there have been no attempts to construct a large-scale CCG parser with the lexicon to support it. In this paper, we describe such a system, built by adaptin...
