taking part in a project which aims at text parsing and translation

of using the patterns of preposition words in order to distinguish
between different meanings of verbs. I'd be interested to know if the
FrameNet database does incorporate explicit data about the particular
prepositions which accompany the valence patterns. In other words, is
it easy to extract from FrameNet that in the valence pattern "asks ...
PP.Comp ..." the prepositional phrase in the given case stands with the
from/for/etc. preposition? |

have been working on predication frames as part of my doctoral research
in Functional Grammar and would like to consult the work done in

corpus-based. I began with Levin's verb classes, but revised the
classes according to semantic frames as opposed to syntanctic
alternations. Unlike Levin, I am not taking classes as a basic
organization of the mental lexicon but rather as a construct based on
similarities in the relationships of predicates to predication frames.
At all stages I am seeking neurolinguistic plausibility.
I'm also working on lexical aspect, especially as it sheds light on
frame structure. |

| David Dufty | University of Memphis |
I am a postdoctoral researcher on “Coh-Metrixâ€
(http://cohmetrix.memphis.edu), an IES-funded project with Danielle
McNamara (PI), Max Louwerse (co-PI), and Art Graesser (co-PI). We are
based at the Institute for Intelligent Systems at the University of
Memphis. Our goal is to develop new methods of assessing texts using a
variety of structural dimensions known as ‘text cohesion.’ The project
was partly inspired by the lack of sophisticated measures regarding
text difficulty and text quality. For example, readability measures,
such as Flesch Reading Ease, use sentence length and word length to
estimate text difficulty. Recent advances in computational linguistics
and discourse processing provide new methods to assess deep structural
text properties, such as argument overlap, and syntactic density. The
Coh-Metrix project comprises three goals. Firstly, we are conducting a
series of studies to determine which text properties affect
comprehension and recall, and to determine optimal levels of cohesion
for readers at various stages of reading ability. Secondly, we are
conducting corpus analyses to evaluate the cohesion of texts along
various dimensions and levels. Thirdly, we are developing a software
tool that automatically assesses the cohesion of text. In developing
our software tool, we believe that FrameNet may provide valuable
information. One of our objectives is to detect causal events in text.
We believe that FrameNet will aid us in establishing the words and
contexts that mark causal events. FrameNet may also aid in determining
distinctions between animate versus non-animate agents, spatial
relationships, and structural text cohesion. Our intention is currently
to use FrameNet for exploratory purposes, and to establish the extent
to which FrameNet may be helpful. We will contact you again if our
usage of FrameNet changes. Furthermore, any use of FrameNet will be
explained in our software documentation, on our website, and via the
software interface. Our hope is that Coh-Metrix will be adopted as the
standard in the computational evaluation and analysis of discourse. We
hope that FrameNet can assist our efforts by providing us with valuable
information about text structure. David Dufty, Ph.D. Postdoctoral

a language, hence able to avoid problems of representing the semantics.
It is intermediate between the primitive Kellogg-Reed system and
generative phase-structure diagrams. It is designed to diagram the
surface-structure of sentences, thus avoiding the problems of movement
and transformational rules. With these limitations, it is obviously
designed as a pedagogical tool, to be easily learned in this modern age
of little if any grammar education, at least in the English speaking
world. |

| Gert Webelhuth | University of Goettingen | I
am a professor of English linguistics. I am teaching a course on verb
meaning next semester and would like to use it in undergraduate and
graduate classes and, hopefully, in future research on lexical
semantics in the English Department at the University of Goettingen.

| Jan Wielemaker | Univeresity of Amsterdam | I'd like to see whether it help to analyse a corpus
of documents and do subsequent question-answering. This
is part of a European research project called HOPS that
aims are multi-channal (voice, chat, www) question answering
for cities. I'm investigating semantic-web related sources
that may be useful to this project. A presentation at
ISWC (Sannibel Island) suggested FrameNet is a good candidate,
but it is in my nature to look at the real material and not just
read about it.

intend to experiement with the semantic frame data with Link Grammar
parser to create a rule-based or statistic-based syntatic to semantic
engine. The purpose of creating such an engine is to identify semantic
roles of database queries in natual languages, then translate them into
the corresponding database command.
