Example

  • Compared to a dependency graph the representation masks non-core syntactic details such as tense or determiners unifies semantically equivalent constructions such as active/passive and explicates implicit propositions such as indicated by possessives or appositions. (Falke, Stanovsky, Gurevych & Dagan, 2016)
  • For example humans tend to make use of structural modifications such as nominalization and verb alternations such as active/passive or transitive/intransitive alternations in condensation. (Riezler, King, Crouch & Zaenen, 2003)
  • In future experiments we will expand WOGLI datasets to contain additional variation such as tense variation more complex sentence structure (additional arguments and adjuncts active/passive) more complex constituent structure and other sentence types (non-declarative embedded). (Reinig & Markert, 2023)
  • Relationships like active/passive are handled by positing two separate lexical entries for active and passive verb forms. (Wasow, 1978)
