D6.1: Technologies and Tools for Lexical Acquisition
This report describes the technologies and tools to be used for Lexical Acquisition in PANACEA. It includes descriptions of existing technologies and tools which can be built on and improved within PANACEA, as well as of new technologies and tools to be developed and integrated in PANACEA platform. The report also specifies the Lexical Resources to be produced. Four main areas of lexical acquisition are included: Subcategorization frames (SCFs), Selectional Preferences (SPs), Lexical-semantic Classes (LCs), for both nouns and verbs, and Multi-Word Expressions (MWEs)

Automatic extraction of subcategorization frames for Italian
Subcategorization is a kind of knowledge which can be considered as crucial in several NLP tasks, such as Information Extraction or parsing, but the collection of very large resources including subcategorization representation is difficult and time-consuming. Various experiences show that the automatic extraction can be a practical and reliable solution for acquiring such a kind of knowledge. The aim of this paper is at investigating the relationships between subcategorization frame extraction and the nature of data from which the frames have to be extracted, e.g. how much the task can be influenced by the richness/poorness of the annotation. Therefore, we present some experiments that apply statistical subcategorization extraction methods, known in literature, on an Italian treebank that exploits a rich set of dependency relations that can be annotated at different degrees of specificity. Benefiting of the availability of relation sets that implement different granularity in the representation of relations, we evaluate our results with reference to previous works in a cross-linguistic perspective. 1
D4.1. Technologies and tools for corpus creation, normalization and annotation
The objectives of the Corpus Acquisition and Annotation (CAA) subsystem are the acquisition and processing of monolingual and bilingual language resources (LRs) required in the PANACEA context. Therefore, the CAA subsystem includes: i) a Corpus Acquisition Component (CAC) for extracting monolingual and bilingual data from the web, ii) a component for cleanup and normalization (CNC) of these data and iii) a text processing component (TPC) which consists of NLP tools including modules for sentence splitting, POS tagging, lemmatization, parsing and named entity recognition
Report on first selection of resources
The central objective of the Metanet4u project is to contribute to the establishment of a pan-European digital platform that makes available language resources and services, encompassing both datasets and software tools, for speech and language processing, and supports a new generation of exchange facilities for them.Peer ReviewedPreprin
An Unsolicited Soliloquy on Dependency Parsing
Programa Oficial de Doutoramento en Computación . 5009V01[Abstract]
This thesis presents work on dependency parsing covering two distinct lines of research. The
first aims to develop efficient parsers so that they can be fast enough to parse large amounts
of data while still maintaining decent accuracy. We investigate two techniques to achieve
this. The first is a cognitively-inspired method and the second uses a model distillation
method. The first technique proved to be utterly dismal, while the second was somewhat of
a success.
The second line of research presented in this thesis evaluates parsers. This is also done in
two ways. We aim to evaluate what causes variation in parsing performance for different
algorithms and also different treebanks. This evaluation is grounded in dependency displacements
(the directed distance between a dependent and its head) and the subsequent
distributions associated with algorithms and the distributions found in treebanks. This work
sheds some light on the variation in performance for both different algorithms and different
treebanks. And the second part of this area focuses on the utility of part-of-speech tags
when used with parsing systems and questions the standard position of assuming that they
might help but they certainly won’t hurt.[Resumen]
Esta tesis presenta trabajo sobre análisis de dependencias que cubre dos líneas de investigación distintas. La primera tiene como objetivo desarrollar analizadores eficientes, de
modo que sean suficientemente rápidos como para analizar grandes volúmenes de datos y,
al mismo tiempo, sean suficientemente precisos. Investigamos dos métodos. El primero se
basa en teorías cognitivas y el segundo usa una técnica de destilación. La primera técnica
resultó un enorme fracaso, mientras que la segunda fue en cierto modo un ´éxito.
La otra línea evalúa los analizadores sintácticos. Esto también se hace de dos maneras. Evaluamos
la causa de la variación en el rendimiento de los analizadores para distintos algoritmos
y corpus. Esta evaluación utiliza la diferencia entre las distribuciones del desplazamiento
de arista (la distancia dirigida de las aristas) correspondientes a cada algoritmo y corpus.
También evalúa la diferencia entre las distribuciones del desplazamiento de arista en los
datos de entrenamiento y prueba. Este trabajo esclarece las variaciones en el rendimiento
para algoritmos y corpus diferentes. La segunda parte de esta línea investiga la utilidad de
las etiquetas gramaticales para los analizadores sintácticos.[Resumo]

entre as distribucións do desprazamento de arista nos datos de adestramento e proba.
Este traballo esclarece as variacións no rendemento para algoritmos e corpus diferentes. A
