چکیده
We describe the design of Comlex Syntax, a computational lexicon providing detailed syntactic information for approximately 38,000 EnglJish headwords. We consider the types of errors which arise in creagng such a lexicon, and how such errors can be measured and controlled.

Developing more shareable resources to support natural language analysis will make it easier and cheaper to create new language processing applications and to support research in computational linguistics. One natural candidate for such a resource is a broad-coverage dictionary, since the work required to create such a dictionary is large but there is general agreement on at least some of the i...

متن کاملThe Influence of Tagging on the Classification of Lexical Complements
A large corpus (about 100 MB of text) was selected and examples of 750 fl'equently occurring verbs were tagged with their compleinent (:lass as defined by a large computational syntactic dictionary, COMLEX Syntax. This tagging task led to the refinement of already existing classes and to the addition of classes that had previously not been defined. This has resulted in the enrichment and improv...
