  1. Lecture 19Word Meanings II CSCE 771 Natural Language Processing • Topics • Description Logic III • Overview of Meaning • Readings: • Text Chapter 189NLTK book Chapter 10 March 27, 2013

  2. Overview • Last Time (Programming) • Wordnet overview • Today • Computational Semantics • Feature based grammars • Readings: • Text 19 • NLTK Book: Chapters 9 and 10 • Next Time: Computational Lexical Semantics

  3. HW review • Dropboxes • Soon to exist: • NER for handbook

  4. Wordnet • Most synsets are connected to other synsets via a number of semantic relations. These relations vary based on the type of word, and include: • Nouns • hypernyms: Y is a hypernym of X if every X is a (kind of) Y (canine is a hypernym of dog) “superordinate” “superclass” • hyponyms: Y is a hyponym of X if every Y is a (kind of) X (dog is a hyponym of canine) “IS-A” • coordinate terms: Y is a coordinate term of X if X and Y share a hypernym (wolf is a coordinate term of dog, and dog is a coordinate term of wolf) “sibling” • holonym: Y is a holonym of X if X is a part of Y (building is a holonym of window) “HAS-PART” • meronym: Y is a meronym of X if Y is a part of X (window is a meronym of building) “IS-PART” “IS-MEMBER” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordNet

  5. Verbs • hypernym: the verb Y is a hypernym of the verb X if the activity X is a (kind of) Y (to perceive is an hypernym of to listen) • troponym: the verb Y is a troponym of the verb X if the activity Y is doing X in some manner (to lisp is a troponym of to talk) • entailment: the verb Y is entailed by X if by doing X you must be doing Y (to sleep is entailed by to snore) • coordinate terms: those verbs sharing a common hypernym (to lisp and to yell) • Adjectives • related nouns • similar to • participle of verb • Adverbs • root adjectives http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordNet

  8. Word senses • A word sense is a distinct meaning • Synonym sets are relations among word senses • couch/sofa, car/automobile • antonyms also • long/short, big/large, rise/fall • extremes; or opposite in direction

  13. Thematic Roles • 19.19 “Sasha broke the window.” • exists e,x,y breaking(e) & breaker(e, Sasha) & brokenThing(e, y) & window(y) • 19.20 Pat opened the door. • Deep or thematic roles • Panini (Indian grammarian) circa 7th-4th century BC • Fillmore 1968, Gruber 1965
