Representation and parsing of multiword expressions
This book consists of contributions related to the definition, representation and parsing of MWEs. These reflect current trends in the representation and processing of MWEs. They cover various categories of MWEs such as verbal, adverbial and nominal MWEs, various linguistic frameworks (e.g. tree-based and unification-based grammars), various languages including English, French, Modern Greek, Hebrew, Norwegian), and various applications (namely MWE detection, parsing, automatic translation) using both symbolic and statistical approaches
Current trends
Deep parsing is the fundamental process aiming at the representation of the syntactic
structure of phrases and sentences. In the traditional methodology this process is
based on lexicons and grammars representing roughly properties of words and interactions
of words and structures in sentences. Several linguistic frameworks, such as Headdriven
Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG), Tree Adjoining
Grammar (TAG), Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG), etc., offer different
structures and combining operations for building grammar rules. These already contain
mechanisms for expressing properties of Multiword Expressions (MWE), which, however,
need improvement in how they account for idiosyncrasies of MWEs on the one
hand and their similarities to regular structures on the other hand. This collaborative
book constitutes a survey on various attempts at representing and parsing MWEs in the
context of linguistic theories and applications
