| Challenge: | Existing parsers for Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars and frame semantics are difficult to use due to the size of the resources to develop. |
| Approach: | They propose a parser which uses Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars and frame semantics to combine them. |
| Outcome: | The proposed grammars are based on Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars and frame semantics. |

| Challenge: | morphology and syntax work on sentence level, but semantic-pragmatic phenomena are often related to two or more neighbouring sentences and possibly to an extra-linguistic context. |
| Approach: | They present semantic-pragmatic specification and annotations in the Prague Dependency Treebank - Consolidated 2.0 release2 by annotating the entire corpus. |
| Outcome: | The proposed annotations are based on the Prague Dependency Treebank -Consolidated 2.0 (PDT-C 2.0) the dataset contains more than 3 million tokens (of Czech) manually annotated from morphology to surface and deep syntax including several types of semantic-pragmatic annotations. |

Parsing All: Syntax and Semantics, Dependencies and Spans (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Syntactic and semantic structures are key linguistic contextual clues, but few studies have explored how they can be used to improve syntactical parsing. |
| Approach: | They propose a syntactic and semantic parsing model which integrates syntaktic information in the encoder of neural network and benefits from two representation formalisms in a uniform way. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art or competitive results on both span and dependency representations and on Penn Treebank. |
German and French Neural Supertagging Experiments for LTAG Parsing (P18-3)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars are a linguistically motivated grammar formalism that allows parsers to express linguistic generalizations that are not captured by statistical parsing. |
| Approach: | They propose a supertagging approach combined with deep learning to extract LTAG supertags from the French Treebank and propose n-best supertailing for German and French. |
| Outcome: | The proposed supertagging approach is able to extract LTAG supertags from the French Treebank and n-best supertracking for German and German. |
WikiBank: Using Wikidata to Improve Multilingual Frame-Semantic Parsing (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Frame-semantic annotations exist for a tiny fraction of the world’s languages, however, Wikidata provides a common, distant supervision signal for semantic parsers. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual resource with partial semantic dependency structures that can be used to extend pre-existing resources rather than creating new man-made resources from scratch. |
| Outcome: | The proposed resource can be used to augment pre-existing resources or reduce the annotation effort for low-resource languages. |
