Abstract

In this talk, I will investigate the relationship between compositionality and multiword expressions, as part of which I will outline different approaches for formalising the notion of compositionality. I will then briefly review computational methods that have been proposed for modelling compositionality, and applications thereof. Finally, I will discuss possible future directions for modelling compositionality, and present some preliminary results.
