| Challenge: | Abstract Meaning Representations (AMRs) are semantic graphs that abstract away from surface syntax and capture the meaning of who does what to whom in a sentence. |
| Approach: | They propose to use German Abstract Meaning Representation (Deutsche AMR) to represent the structure and semantics of German. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework is based on an annotated corpus of 400 DeAMR in German and is validated through inter-annotator agreement. |

Towards Turkish Abstract Meaning Representation (P19-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) abstracts away from syntactic features such as word order and does not annotate every constituent in a sentence. |
| Approach: | They have built a first Turkish AMR corpus by hand-annotating 100 sentences from the novel "The Little Prince" they will use the results to prepare a Turkish AML annotation specification for future annotators. |
| Outcome: | The results of the study compare Turkish AMRs with English AMR annotations . the proposed framework is expected to be used in training future annotators. |

| Challenge: | Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) graphs are compared to gold graphs by the Smatch metric, but lack a well-defined representation and evaluation. |
| Approach: | They propose an algorithm for deriving a unified graph representation using a super-sentential annotation method. |
| Outcome: | The proposed algorithm avoids the pitfalls of over-merging and lacks coherence from under merging. |
