Segmentation Layers in the Group of the Predicate: a Case Study of Bulgarian within the BulTreeBank Framework∗
Milena Slavcheva · 2002
This paper describes the development of a regular grammar that automatically recognizes and delimits segments in the group of the predicate in sentences of Bulgarian. The language-specific segmentation is performed at the level of partial parsing where reliable, meaningful and useful entities are formed called chunks. The significance of the grammar development lies in the fact that it is a plug-in into the BulTreeBank framework for the creation and exploitation of linguistically interpreted data sets. The results of the work presented in this paper are the initial stage in the development of a model for the description and processing of the group of the predicate at subsequent linguistic information levels.
