Papers with quantification annotation scheme
Towards an ISO Standard for the Annotation of Quantification (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Quantification occurs in every sentence of written text or spoken discourse because application of a predicate to one or more sets of objects gives rise to questions of relative scope, of cardinality, and of distribution (or 'distributivity') of the predicacy over the sets of arguments. |
| Approach: | They propose an approach to the annotation of quantification that is being developed as part of an effort by the International Organisation for Standardisation ISO to define interoperable semantic annotation schemes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed scheme includes both count and mass NP quantifiers, as well as NPs with syntactically and semantically complex heads with internal quantification and scoping structures. |
