Comparing Dependency and Constituent Syntax for Frame-semantic Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
We address the question of which syntactic representation is best suited for role-semantic analysis of English in the FrameNet paradigm. We compare systems based on dependencies and constituents, and a dependency syntax with a rich set of grammatical functions with one with a smaller set. Our experiments show that dependency-based and constituent-based analyzers give roughly equivalent performance, and that a richer set of functions has a positive influence on argument classification for verbs.

Combining Constituent and Dependency Syntactic Views for Chinese Semantic Role Labeling
This paper presents a novel featurebased semantic role labeling (SRL) method which uses both constituent and dependency syntactic views. Comparing to the traditional SRL method relying on only one syntactic view, the method has a much richer set of syntactic features. First we select several important constituent-based and dependency-based features from existing studies as basic features. Then,...
متن کاملLTH: Semantic Structure Extraction using Nonprojective Dependency Trees
We describe our contribution to the SemEval task on Frame-Semantic Structure Extraction. Unlike most previous systems described in literature, ours is based on dependency syntax. We also describe a fully automatic method to add words to the FrameNet lexical database, which gives an improvement in the recall of frame detection.
متن کاملConvolution Kernels on Constituent, Dependency and Sequential Structures for Relation Extraction
This paper explores the use of innovative kernels based on syntactic and semantic structures for a target relation extraction task. Syntax is derived from constituent and dependency parse trees whereas semantics concerns to entity types and lexical sequences. We investigate the effectiveness of such representations in the automated relation extraction from text. We process the above data by mea...
متن کاملDependency-based Semantic Analysis of Natural-language Text
Semantic roles, logical relations such as AGENT or INSTRUMENT that hold between events and their participants and circumstances, need to be determined automatically by several types of applications in natural language processing. This process is referred to as semantic role labeling. This dissertation describes how to construct statistical models for semantic role labeling of English text, and ...
متن کاملReverse Engineering of Network Software Binary Codes for Identification of Syntax and Semantics of Protocol Messages
Reverse engineering of network applications especially from the security point of view is of high importance and interest. Many network applications use proprietary protocols which specifications are not publicly available. Reverse engineering of such applications could provide us with vital information to understand their embedded unknown protocols. This could facilitate many tasks including d...
