Integrating Motion Predicate Classes with Spatial and Temporal Annotations

James D. Pustejovsky, Jessica L. Moszkowicz · 2008

We propose a spatio-temporal markup for the annotation of motion predicates in text, informed by a lexical semantic classification of these verbs. We incorporate this classification within a spatial event structure, based on Generative Lexicon Theory. We discuss how the spatial event structure suggests changes to annotation systems designed solely for temporal or spatial phenomena, resulting in spatio-temporal annotation.
