Katrin Erk, Sebastian Padó · 2006
This paper presents SHALMANESER, a software package for shallow semantic parsing, the automatic assignment of semantic classes and roles to free text.SHALMANESER is a toolchain of independent modules communicating through a common XML format.System output can be inspected graphically.SHALMANESER can be used either as a "black box" to obtain semantic parses for new datasets (classifiers for English and German frame-semantic analysis are included), or as a research platform that can be extended to new parsers, languages, or classification paradigms.
