Kancheva (2022), Towards incorporating prepositions in BTB-WordNet: A case study

<h4><a href="https://figshare.com/projects/Proceedings_of_the_ESSLLI_2022_Student_Session/144189" target="_blank">Proceedings of the ESSLLI 2022 Student Session</a></h4> <h2>Towards incorporating prepositions in BTB-WordNet: A case study</h2> <h3>Zara Kancheva</h3> <p>The paper presents an initial attempt at investigating the topic of preposition incorporation in BulTreeBank WordNet. The focus is on the preposition 'на' (<em>na</em>) in <em>verb+preposition+noun </em>constructions. The prepositions are categorised by semantic classification and the verbs by the categories from Princeton WordNet. Wordnets typically do not contain prepositions, because they are difficult for processing, but their incorporation would seriously benefit the performance of wordnets for tasks such as text analysis and generation, word-sense disambiguation, automatic translation, etc.</p> <p><br></p>
