Abstract

This paper describes the technology and an experiment of subcategorization acquisition for Chinese verbs. The SCF hypotheses are generated by means of linguistic heuristic information and filtered via statistical methods. Evaluation on the acquisition of 20 multi-pattern verbs shows that our experiment achieved the similar precision and recall with former researches. Besides, simple application of the acquired lexicon to a PCFG parser indicates great potentialities of subcategorization information in the fields of NLP.
