This paper analyzes two joint inference approaches for semantic role labeling: re-ranking of candidate semantic frames generated by one local model and combination of two distinct ...
This paper proposes a novel method to refine the grammars in parsing by utilizing semantic knowledge from HowNet. Based on the hierarchical state-split approach, which can refine ...

The work presented in this paper explores a supervised method for learning a probabilistic model of a lexicon of VerbNet classes. We intend for the probabilistic model to provide ...
The integration of sophisticated inference-based techniques into natural language processing applications first requires a reliable method of encoding the predicate-argument struc...
In this paper, we discuss our analysis and resulting new annotations of Penn Discourse Treebank (PDTB) data tagged as Concession. Concession arises whenever one of the two argumen...
