Towards a Semantically Motivated Organization of a Valency Lexicon for NLP: The GREG-Proposal
Leo Wanner, Stefan Klatt, Oleg Kapanadze, Nunu Kapanadze · 2002
The regularity of valency information across entries for different lexical units calls for its generalization. In this paper, we present the results ofour research on the generalization ofsyntactic and semantic valency patterns in German for a mid-size multilingual verbal valency NLP lexicon. We suggest semantic field-oriented multiple inheritance hierarchies. These hierarchies capture fine-grained differentiations between subcategorization frames and allow for a direct relation between case frames and corresponding subcategorization frames. For the implementation, we use the DATR-formalism.
