In IE, history navigation won't work. The ongoing "Corpus Pattern Analysis" project is building a "Pattern Dictionary of English Verbs" (PDEV). PDEV is an inventory of the normal patterns of use of English verbs, with links in each case to an unambiguous meaning. The problem that PDEV aims to solve is the highly ambiguous nature of the link between words and meanings. First, it is necessary to recognize that in natural language words don't have meaning -- they have only "meaning potential" -- something that is so vague, variable, and ambiguous that it cannot be used as a basis for reliable disambiguation, computing, or anything else. What we see in standard English dictionaries are lists of undifferentiated meaning potentials. The human user has to guess at the differentiating criteria.

The problem is soluble, however, if we take a closer look at how words are actually used to make meanings. Samplesize: patterns: CPA & PDEV bibliography Atkins, B. Writefull | A new way of writing with confidence. LanguageTool Style and Grammar Check.

ARK Syntactic and Semantic Parsing Demo :: TurboParser + SEMAFOR. Cognitive Computation Group. Semantic parsing of sentences is an important task toward natural language understanding, and has immediate applications in tasks such information extraction and question answering. We study the task of semantic role labeling (SRL) in which, for each verb in a sentence, the goal is to identify all constituents that fill a semantic role, and to determine their roles, such as Agent, Patient or Instrument, and their adjuncts, such as Locative, Temporal or Manner. For example, given a sentence "I left my pearls to my daughter-in-law in my will. ", the goal is to identify different arguments of the verb left which yields the output: [A0 I] [V left] [A1 my pearls] [A2 to my daughter-in-law] [AM-LOC in my will]. Here A0 represents the leaver, A1 represents the thing left, A2 represents the benefactor, AM-LOC is an adjunct indicating the location of the action, and V determines the verb.
