FrameNet Meets the Semantic Web: A DAML+OIL Frame Representation
Srini Narayanan, Charles J. Fillmore, Collin F. Baker, Miriam R. L. Petruck · 2002
The Berkeley FrameNet Project (Baker, Fillmore, & Lowe 1998; Fillmore & Baker 2001) (URL: http:// framenet.icsi.berkeley.edu/framenet) is creating an online lexical resource for English, based on the principles of Frame Semantics and supported by corpus evidence. A semantic frame is a script-like structure of inferences, which are linked to the meanings of linguistic units (lexical items). Each frame identifies a set of frame elements (FEs), which are framespecific semantic roles (participants, props, phases of a state of affairs). Our description of each lexical item identifies the frames which underlie a given meaning and the ways in which the FEs are realized in structures headed by the word.
