[PDF] Top 20 A Practical Classification of Multiword Expressions

... It is hard to establish which of the above categories does it belong to. The only lexically variable el- ement is it, which can be substituted with another noun. This would qualify the expression to be in- cluded in the ... See full document

... This study treats only two-word MWEs. We are not considering some common Portuguese MWEs, such as “tempo de espera” (waiting time, lit.: time of waiting), “dar um tempo” (to have a break, lit.: to give a time) or ... See full document

... Traditional NLP tasks such as part-of-speech (POS) tagging or semantic role labeling (SRL) consists in tagging each word in a sentence with a tag. Another class of problems such as Named En- tity Recognition (NER) or ... See full document

... When training a model on NN MWEs, our aim was to keep as much as possible the same condi- tion for our three experiments. However, the NN training set has definitely not the same properties as the NA and NANN ones. The ... See full document
