A new syntactic-semantic interface for ArabTAG an Arabic Tree Adjoining grammar
Résumé
For a reliable natural language processing (NLP), it is important to know how to link the meaning of a statement or a sentence to its syntactic structure. The link between semantic and syntax can be established using a syntax-semantic interface that allows the construction of sentence meaning. In this paper, we present a new approach, which built a tree adjoining grammar to represent the syntax and the semantic of modern standard Arabic. In the first part, we detail the process that automatically generates this grammar using Arab-XMG meta-grammar. Then we explain how we have established the link between syntax and semantic and how we have introduced the semantic frame -based dimension into the meta-grammar using Arabic Verbnet.
