Abstract

Semantic resources of predicate-argument structure have high potential to enable increased quality in language understanding. Several alternative frame collections exist, but they cover different sets of predicates and use different role sets. We integrate semantic frame information given a predicate verb using three available collections: FrameNet, PropBank, and the LCS database. For each word sense in WordNet, we automatically assign the corresponding FrameNet frame and align frame roles between FrameNet and PropBank frames and between FrameNet and LCS frames, and verify the results manually. The results are avilable as part of ISI’s Omega ontology.
