PredPatt: Predicate-Argument Extraction from Universal Dependencies
We present PredPatt, a framework of extensible, interpretable, language-neutral
predicate-argument extraction patterns. PredPatt bridges the deep syntax of the
Universal Dependency project to an initial shallow semantic layer: this can form
the basis for future layering of semantic annotations atop
Universal Dependency treebanks, and
separately can be considered a linguistically well-founded component of a
"Universal IE" mechanism.
PredPatt is part of a wider initiative on
decompositional semantics at Johns Hopkins University. To
that end, it has been used to bootstrap semantic annotations in our recent EMNLP
2016 paper (White et al., 2016).
PredPatt shows the best precision and recall when compared with several prominent
Open IE tools on a large benchmark
(Zhang et al., 2017).
