  • Next message: Rayson, Paul: "RE: [Corpora-List] semantic tagging"

    Dear all,

    Thanks for the replies on this so far. I'll collate all the responses and
    post a summary once the thread dries-up a bit.

    Inevitably, I haven't had chance to peruse all the contributions that have
    come may way as of yet, but I think what I'm actually after is methods for
    automatically assigning semantic types (I guess this is likely to be
    ontology-driven) so that I can populate lexical sets.

    That said, the stuff on semantic role labelling is bound to be useful for
    my purposes too.

    Thanks for your help so far,
    Cheers,
    A
