Distributional Similarity and Preposition Semantics

Prepositions are often considered to have too little semantic content or be too polysemous to warrant a proper semantic description. We illustrate the suitability of distributional similarity methods for analysing preposition semantics by way of an inter-preposition similarity task, and make the claim that any semantic account of preposition semantics must be partially conditioned on valence.

Distributional Models of Preposition Semantics

Prepositions are often considered to have too little semantic content or be too polysemous to warrant a proper semantic description. We first illustrate the suitability of distributional similarity methods for analysing preposition semantics by way of an inter-preposition similarity task, and make the claim that any semantic account of preposition semantics must be partially conditioned on vale...

Defining and Representing Preposition Senses: a preliminary analysis

In this document, we analyze several aspects related to the semantics of prepositions. We propose an approach and elements of a method to organize and to represent prepositions uses and senses. Complex polysemous behaviors are discussed, showing the use and limits of the approach.

AN INTRODUCTION TO LEXICAL SEMANTICS A Computational Perspective

In this introductory text, we present some of the main lexical semantics paradigms frequently used in Computational Linguistics circles. Most of the elements presented here come from different linguistic traditions. To make the text homogeneous, we have somewhat reformulated or simplified some of them. We successively present the notions of argument structure and thematic roles, the notion of a...
