Towards the Automatic Identification of Spanish Verbal Phraseological Units
Belém Priego Sánchez, David Pinto, Salah Mejri · Research in Computing Science · 2015
Verbal Phraseological Units are expressions made up of two or more words in which at least one of these words is a verb that plays the role of the predicate.Their main attribute is that this form of expression has taken on a more specific meaning than the expression itself.The automatic recognition of this type of linguistic structures is a very important task, since they are the standard way of expressing a concept or idea.This paper describes the outgoing advances of a PhD research work in which it is attempted to construe a methodology which allows to automatically identify these linguistic structures for the Mexican Spanish language.It is presented a set of hypotheses which will allow to produce novel proposals in the way of automatically identifying a verbal phraseological unit in a raw text.Additionally, we have presented experiments carried out in this sense, for example, by employing machine learning methods.Finally, we show a lexical resource which is product of the current advances in this PhD thesis.
