Improving subcategorization acquisition using word sense disambiguation
Anna Korhonen, Judita Preiss · 2003
We investigate the change in performance of automatic subcategorization acquisition when a word sense disambiguation (WSD) system is employed to guide the acquisition process. As a subgoal, this involves creating a probabilistic WSD system, which we evaluate on the Senseval-2 English allwords task data. We carry out an evaluation of the enriched subcategorization acquisition system using 29 `dif- cult' English verbs which shows that WSD helps to improve the acquisition performance.
