Quasi-logical forms from f-structures for the Penn treebank.
In: IWCS 2003 - Fifth International Workshop on Computational Semantics, 15-17 January 2003, Tilburg, The Netherlands.
In this paper we show how the trees in the Penn treebank can
be associated automatically with simple quasi-logical forms. Our approach is based on combining two independent strands of work: the first is the observation that there is a close correspondence between quasi-logical forms and LFG f-structures [van Genabith and Crouch, 1996]; the second is the development of an automatic f-structure annotation algorithm for the Penn treebank [Cahill et al, 2002a; Cahill
et al, 2002b]. We compare our approach with that of [Liakata and Pulman, 2002].
