This paper presents a method for improving semantic role labeling (SRL) using a large amount of automatically acquired knowledge.We acquire two varieties of knowledge, which we call surface case frames and deep case frames.Although the surface case frames are compiled from syntactic parses and can be used as rich syntactic knowledge, they have limited capability for resolving semantic ambiguity.To compensate for the deficiency of the surface case frames, we compile deep case frames from automatic semantic roles.We also consider quality management for both types of knowledge in order to get rid of the noise brought from the automatic analyses.The experimental results show that Chinese SRL can be improved using automatically acquired knowledge and the quality management shows a positive effect on this task.
