Towards a Vector Space Model for FrameNet-like Resources
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present an original framework to model frame semantic resources (namely, FrameNet) using minimal supervision. This framework can be leveraged both to expand an existing FrameNet with new knowledge, and to induce a FrameNet in a new language. Our hypothesis is that a frame semantic resource can be modeled and represented by a suitable semantic space model. The intuition is that semantic spaces are an effective model of the notion of “being characteristic of a frame” for both lexical elements and full sentences. The paper gives two main contributions. First, it shows that our hypothesis is valid and can be successfully implemented. Second, it explores different types of semantic VSMs, outlining which one is more suitable for representing a frame semantic resource. In the paper, VSMs are used for modeling the linguistic core of a frame, the lexical units. Indeed, if the hypothesis is verified for these units, the proposed framework has a much wider application.

Shallow Semantic Parsing Based on FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank
This article describes a semantic parser based on FrameNet semantic roles that uses a broad knowledge base created by interconnecting three major resources: FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank. We link the above resources through a mapping between Intersective Levin classes, which are part of PropBank’s annotation, and the FrameNet frames. By using Levin classes, we successfully detect FrameNet sema...
متن کاملKnowledge Discovering using FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank
In this paper, we present a high accurate system for FrameNet semantic role classification based on the innovative features derived from a combined use of FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank. The main property of our approach is a unified view of the above three resources which is theoretically supported by the linking theory. Experiments on Support Vector Machines (SVM) show that our system classif...

This article describes a robust semantic parser that uses a broad knowledge base created by interconnecting three major resources: FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank. The FrameNet corpus contains the examples annotated with semantic roles whereas the VerbNet lexicon provides the knowledge about the syntactic behavior of the verbs. We connect VerbNet and FrameNet by mapping the FrameNet frames to th...
متن کاملTowards Open-Domain Semantic Role Labeling
Current Semantic Role Labeling technologies are based on inductive algorithms trained over large scale repositories of annotated examples. Frame-based systems currently make use of the FrameNet database but fail to show suitable generalization capabilities in out-of-domain scenarios. In this paper, a state-of-art system for frame-based SRL is extended through the encapsulation of a distribution...
متن کاملTowards a Linking of FrameNet and SUMO
Most end-user applications of natural language processing such as question answering or information retrieval – and especially a research-oriented task like textual entailment – need to process entailment and contradiction in one way or another. In order to detect entailment and contradiction, a system needs to access very different kinds of resources, such as lexicons, semantic word nets or kn...
