On Learning more Appropriate Selectional Restrictions
نویسنده
چکیده
We present some variations affecting the association measure and thresholding on a technique for learning Selectional Restrictions from on-line corpora. It uses a wide-coverage noun taxonomy and a statistical measure to generalize the appropriate semantic classes. Evaluation measures for the Selectional Restrictions learning task are discussed. Finally, an experimental evaluation of these variations is reported. S u b j e c t A r e a s : corpus-based language modeling, computat ional lexicography

An Experiment On Learning Appropriate Selectional Restrictions From A Parsed Corpus
We present a methodology to extract Selectional Restrictions at a variable level of abstraction from phrasally analyzed corpora. The method relays in the use of a wide-coverage noun taxonomy and a statistical measure of the co-occurrence of linguistic items. Some experimental results about the performance of the method are provided.

متن کاملAdapting Decision Trees for Learning Selectional Restrictions
This paper describes the implementation of a system that automatically learns selectional restrictions for individual senses of polysemous verbs from subject-object relationships. The selectional restrictions are inferred from an adaptation of decision tree induction, and are bound to the syntactic relations that realize them as part of a move toward automated construction of verb predicates.
متن کاملModeling selectional restrictions in a relational type system
Selectional restrictions are semantic constraints on forming certain complex types in natural language. The paper gives an overview of modeling selectional restrictions in a relational type systemwith morphological and syntactic types. We discuss some foundations of the system and ways of formalizing selectional restrictions.
متن کاملOn the Interaction of Grammatical and Processing Restrictions in Derivational Morphology
There is a long-standing debate about the principles and mechanisms that constrain the combinatorial properties of affixes, in particular of English suffixes. One group of scholars argues for the existence of lexical strata with strong restrictions holding between the different strata. This view is disputed by scholars who claim that it is selectional restrictions of individual suffixes that ar...
