| Abstract | The paper describes a system for extracting subcategorization frames of verbs not found in existing broad-coverage valency lexicons. The system uses two parameters: the results of a finite-state parser and the predictions of a set of automatically learned rules which transfer subcategorization frames from cognate verbs. An in-depth evaluation quantified the contribution of the individual parameters. |
