Title A General Purpose FrameNet-based Shallow Semantic Parser
Authors Bonaventura Coppola and Alessandro Moschitti
Abstract In this paper we present a new FrameNet-based Shallow Semantic Parser. ShallowSemantic Parsing has been a popular Natural Language Processing task since the2004 and 2005 CoNLL Shared Task editions on Semantic Role Labeling, which werebased on the PropBank lexical-semantic resource. Nonetheless, efforts inextending such task to the FrameNet setting have been constrained by practicalsoftware engineering issues. We hereby analyze these issues, identify desirablerequirements for a practical parsing framework, and show the results of oursoftware implementation. In particular, we attempt at meeting requirementsarising from both a) the need of a flexible environment supporting currentongoing research, and b) the willingness of providing an effective platformsupporting preliminary application prototypes in the field. After introducingthe task of FrameNet-based Shallow Semantic Parsing, we sketch the systemprocessing workflow and summarize a set of successful experimental results,directing the reader to previous published papers for extended experimentdescriptions and wider discussion of the achieved results.
