Title Automatic Assignment of Grammatical Relations

Lombardo Vincenzo (DISTA – Universita del Piemonte Orientale “A. Avogadro”, c.so Borsalino 54, 15100 Alessandria, Italy, Centro di Scienza Cognitiva – Universita di Torino, via Lagrange 3, 10123 Torino, Italy, vincenzo@di.unito.it)

Keywords Adjuncts, Complements, Dependency Tree, Grammatical Relations, Subcategorization

Session Session WP2 - Corpus Annotation

Abstract This paper presents a method for the assignment of grammatical relation labels in a sentence structure. The method has been implemented in the software tool AGRA (Automatic Grammatical Relation Assigner), which is part of a project for the development of a treebank of Italian sentences, and a knowledge base of Italian subcategorization frames. The annotation schema implements a notion of underspecification, that arranges grammatical relations from generic to specific one onto a hierarchy; the software tool works with hand-coded rules, which apply heuristic knowledge (on syntactic and semantic cues) to distinguish between complements and modifiers.
