Constraint-based RMRS Construction from Shallow Grammars
نویسنده
چکیده
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 feature structure formalism that allow flexible adaptation to alternative grammars and different languages.1

Constraint-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 Integration of Deep and Shallow Parsing Techniques
To investigate the contributions of taggers or chunkers to the performance of a deep syntactic parser, Weighted Constraint Dependency Grammars have been extended to also take into consideration information from external sources. Using a weak information fusion scheme based on constraint optimization techniques, a parsing accuracy has been achieved which is comparable to other (stochastic) parsers.
متن کاملThe TIGER 700 RMRS Bank: RMRS Construction from Dependencies
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 convers...
متن کاملCompatible RMRS representations from RASP and the ERG
Various applications could potentially benefit from the integration of deep and shallow processing techniques. A universal representation, compatible between deep and shallow parsers, would enable such integration, allowing the advantages of both to be combined. This paper describes efforts to make RMRS such a representation. This work was done as part of DeepThought, funded under the 5th Frame...
متن کاملRobust Ontology Acquisition from Machine-Readable Dictionaries
In this paper, we outline the development of a system that automatically constructs ontologies by extracting knowledge from dictionary definition sentences using Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics (RMRS), a semantic formalism that permits underspecification. We show that by combining deep and shallow parsing resources through the common formalism of RMRS, we can extract ontological relations in...
