Multiword expressions (MWEs) are a class of linguistic forms spanning conventional word
boundaries that are both idiosyncratic and pervasive across different languages. The …

We present an approach to discriminant-based MRS banking, ie the construction of an
annotated corpus where each input item is paired with a logical-form semantics. Semantic …

Question Generation (QG) is the task of generating reasonable questions from a text. It is a
relatively new research topic and has its potential usage in intelligent tutoring systems and …

We give a detailed account of an algorithm for efficient tactical generation from
underspecified logical-form semantics, using a wide-coverage grammar and a corpus of real …

WikiWoods is an ongoing initiative to provide rich syntacto-semantic annotations for English
Wikipedia. We sketch an automated processing pipeline to extract relevant textual content …

We present a hybrid MT architecture, combining state-of-the-art linguistic processing with
advanced stochastic techniques. Grounded in a theoretical reflection on the division of labor …

Deverbal nouns pose serious challenges for knowledge-representation systems. We
present a method of canonicalizing deverbal noun representations, relying on a rich lexicon …

Large-scale grammar-based parsing systems nowadays increasingly rely on independently
developed, more specialized components for pre-processing their input. However, different …

We describe resources aimed at increasing the usability of the semantic representations
utilized within the DELPH-IN (Deep Linguistic Processing with HPSG) consortium. We …

In this thesis, I present a new method of producing treebanks using constraint-based
grammars. Rather than requiring an explicitly enumerated set of candidate analyses per …
