Towards a Tight Integration of Syntactic Parsing with Semantic Disambiguation by means of Declarative Programming
Yuliya Lierler, Peter A. Schuller · 2013
We propose and advocate the use of an advanced declarative programming paradigm – answer set programming – as a uniform platform for integrated approach towards syntax-semantic processing in natural language. We illustrate that (a) the parsing technology based on answer set programming implementation reaches performance sufficient for being a useful NLP tool, and (b) the proposed method for incorporating semantic information from FRAMENET into syntactic parsing may prove to be useful in allowing semantic-based disambiguation of syntactic structures. 1
