Ideas Mova took (2)

From the ideas ledger: an idea tried, kept or queued, or measured with no gain, and what it gave.

measured, no gain — Turn the semantic predicates already stored in prag/data/verbnet.tsv (the frame rows carry has_possession !has_possession transfer cause …, but nothing reads them) into derived state facts for the student: after a transfer frame, the recipient has the theme… (VerbNet Representations: Subevent Semantics for Transfer… · result states from VerbNet predicates (possession after transfer, location after motion) remembered as Fact frames: courses 7704/2206→7698/2203; possession…)
measured, no gain — Irrealis for future-having classes (promise, offer, owe): their transfer did not happen yet, so no possession fact is derived. A negative control for I1: «The king promised the miller gold» must not yield «the miller has gold». (VerbNet Representations: Subevent Semantics for Transfer… · no states from classes whose predicates say irrealis (promise, offer) — part of I1, dropped with it)

Papers

Mapping AMR to UMR: Resources for Adapting Existing Corpora for Cross-Lingual Compatibility (2023)
A reference paper that lists how AMR structures map onto UMR, the typologically motivated successor to AMR.
UMR Annotation of Multiword Expressions (2023)
This is a guideline paper. It runs no experiment and reports no counts. UMR, which is based on AMR, maps words to concepts. The authors define a multiword expression (MWE) operationally: several words that together form one concept. They sort MWEs into three groups. Fixed MWEs are unmodifiable word sequences, such as…
PropBank Comes of Age—Larger, Smarter, and more Diverse (2022)
A twenty-year review of PropBank. Rolesets are coarse senses with numbered arguments, and every role now also carries a function tag (PAG proto-agent, PPT proto-patient, GOL goal, LOC, TMP…) after Dowty. Since the 2017 unification, one roleset covers etymologically related verbs, nouns, adjectives, light-verb…
VerbNet Representations: Subevent Semantics for Transfer Verbs (2019)
The paper presents VerbNet's revised semantic representations, shown on the 37 classes (810 verbs) of change of possession and transfer of information.
PropBank: Semantics of New Predicate Types (2014)
PropBank annotated verbs only. This paper describes how it was extended to nouns, adjectives and complex predicates such as light verb constructions (make an offer). Over 2,800 noun rolesets were added to the lexicon, many taken from NomBank and extended with WordNet classes for events and states. For a light verb…
