Comment on Models in Chinese Semantic Rrepresentation
Liping You · Zhongwen xinxi xuebao · 2005
The purpose of this comment is to provide the research of semantic representation of Chinese sentences with a reference.First,we review three presently popular models in semantic representation of Chinese sentences in the respects of their theoretical basis and representing methods,which are Word Dependency(WD) based on Dependency Grammar,Conceptual Dependency(CD) based on Conceptual Dependency Theory and Kernel Dependency(KD) based on Frame Semantics.Then we make more effort to compare their features for semantic representation.The result is that(1) WD is relatively easy to realize but its function is quite limited.The function of CD is quite well but it is hard to realize.Both of them have fatal problems.However,KD refers to both words and concepts and could be the best at semantic representation of Chinese sentences.(2) There is much more and comprehensive work in the realization of the models,such as syntactic parsing,lexicography and standardization.
