Preposition Senses: Generalized Disambiguation Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our previous study on disambiguating the preposition “with” (using WordNet for hypernym and meronym relations, LCS for verb and preposition lexical information, and features of head and complement) looked promising enough to warrant study for other prepositions. Through investigation of ten frequently used prepositions, this paper describes general senses of prepositions and sense-case definitions, introduces a novel generalized sense disambiguation model, and demonstrates how this benefits a paraphrase recognition system.

An Inventory of Preposition Relations
We describe an inventory of semantic relations that are expressed by prepositions. We define these relations by building on the word sense disambiguation task for prepositions and propose a mapping from preposition senses to the relation labels by collapsing semantically related senses across prepositions.
متن کاملSense Disambiguation for Preposition ‘with’
Sense disambiguation for prepositions is used within a paraphrase recognition system. ‘With’ is chosen to explore our approach of using information from WordNet (hypernym and meronym relations) and LCS (verb lexical information); similar concepts can be used for other prepositions. This paper describes the senses of ‘with’, the disambiguation model, evaluation process, and results.
متن کاملDisambiguation of Preposition Sense Using Linguistically Motivated Features
In this paper, we present a supervised classification approach for disambiguation of preposition senses. We use the SemEval 2007 Preposition Sense Disambiguation datasets to evaluate our system and compare its results to those of the systems participating in the workshop. We derived linguistically motivated features from both sides of the preposition. Instead of restricting these to a fixed win...
متن کاملJoint Learning of Preposition Senses and Semantic Roles of Prepositional Phrases
The sense of a preposition is related to the semantics of its dominating prepositional phrase. Knowing the sense of a preposition could help to correctly classify the semantic role of the dominating prepositional phrase and vice versa. In this paper, we propose a joint probabilistic model for word sense disambiguation of prepositions and semantic role labeling of prepositional phrases. Our expe...
متن کاملCoverage And Inheritance In The Preposition Project
In The Preposition Project (TPP), 13 prepositions have now been analyzed and considerable data made available. These prepositions, among the most common words in English, contain 211 senses. By analyzing the coverage of these senses, it is shown that TPP provides potentially greater breadth and depth than other inventories of the range of semantic roles. Specific inheritance mechanisms are deve...
