In this paper, we present the details of creating a pilot Arabic proposition bank (Propbank). Propbanks exist for both English and Chinese. However the morphological and syntactic expression of linguistic phenomena in Arabic yield a very different type of process in creating an Arabic propbank

The Quran is a significant religious text written in a unique literary style, close to very poetic language in nature. Accordingly it is significantly richer and more complex than the newswire style used in the previously released Arabic PropBank (Zaghouani et al., 2010; Diab et al., 2008). We

incomprehensible (Masica, 1993). Hindi draws its vocabulary from Sanskrit while Urdu draws its vocabulary from Persian, Arabic and even Turkish. In this paper, we present our efforts to adopt frames of nominal and verbal predicates that Urdu shares with either Hindi or Arabic for Urdu PropBanking. We discuss

This paper gives guidelines of how to annotate Propbank instances using a dedicated editor, Jubilee. Propbank is a corpus in which the arguments of each verb predicate are annotated with their semantic roles in relation to the predicate. Propbank annotation also requires the choice of a sense ID

This paper gives guidelines of how to create and update Propbank frameset files using a dedicated editor, Cornerstone. Propbank is a corpus in which the arguments of each verb predicate are annotated with their semantic roles in relation to the predicate. Propbank annotation also requires

Standard Arabic that exploits many aspects of the rich morphological features of the language. The experiments on the pilot Arabic Propbank data show that our system based on Support Vector Machines and Kernel Methods yields a global SRL F1 score of 82.17%, which improves the current state

Abstract—We present a pilot study for building an Arabic morphological Pattern Net as a lexical semantic resource. In this paper, a limited number of Arabic Morphological Patterns have been selected in order to analyze the structure and behavior of some verbs in the Arabic PropBank [19]. Our goal

The revised Arabic PropBank (APB) reflects a number of changes to the data and the process of PropBanking. Several changes stem from Treebank revisions. An automatic process was put in place to map existing annotation to the new trees. We have revised the original 493 Frame Files from the Pilot APB
