Semantic Classes in Czech Valency Lexicon: Verbs of Communication and Verbs of Exchange
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a project aimed at enhancing a valency lexicon of Czech verbs with coherent semantic classes. For this purpose, we make use of FrameNet, a semantically oriented lexical resource. At the present stage, semantic frames from FrameNet have been mapped to two groups of verbs with divergent semantic and morphosyntactic properties, verbs of communication and verbs of exchange. The feasibility of this task has been proven by the achieved inter-annotator agreement – 85.9% for the verbs of communication and 78.5% for the verbs of exchange. As a result of our experiment, the verbs of communication have been classified into nine semantic classes and the verbs of exchange into ten classes, based on upper level semantic frames from FrameNet.

Semantic Roles in Valency Lexicon of Czech Verbs: Verbs of Communication and Exchange
We introduce a project to enhance a valency lexicon of Czech verbs with semantic roles. For this purpose, we make use of FrameNet. At the present stage, frame elements from FrameNet have been mapped to valency complementations of verbs of communication and verbs of exchange. The feasibility of this task has been proven by the achieved inter-annotator agreement – 95.6% for the verbs of communica...
متن کاملMultilingual Features of Complex Valency Frames
In this paper we deal with the verb valency lexicon of Czech verbs named VerbaLex, which contains complex valency verb frames (CVFs) including both surface and deep valencies. The most notable features of CVFs include two-level semantic labels with linkage to the Princeton and EuroWordNet Top Ontology hierarchy and the corresponding surface verb frame patterns capturing the morphological cases ...
متن کاملCzech Verbs of Communication and the Extraction of Their Frames
We aim at a procedure of automatic generation of valency frames for verbs not covered in VALLEX, a lexicon of Czech verbs. We exploit the classification of verbs into syntactico-semantic classes. This article describes our first step to automatically identify verbs of communication and to assign the prototypical frame to them. The method of identification is evaluated against two versions of VA...
متن کاملValency Lexicon for Czech: From Verbs to Nouns
Valency lexicon of Czech verbs has been intensively worked on for more than a year, and now we have at our disposal a detailed description of valency frames of several hundreds verbs. Presently, the challenge naturally arises, to use the existing lexicon for capturing valency of other word classes. In this paper, we focus on valency of nouns derived from verbs. We propose an algorithm for autom...
متن کاملValency Lexicon of Czech Verbs: Towards Formal Description of Valency and Its Modeling in an Electronic Language Resource
Valency refers to the capacity of verb (or a word belonging to another part of speech) to take a specific number and type of syntactically dependent language units. Valency information is thus related to particular lexemes and as such it is necessary to describe valency characteristics for separate lexemes in the form of lexicon entries. A valency lexicon is indispensable for any complex Natura...
