predicate-argument structure of the verbs:English Propbank: www.cis.upenn.edu/~ace 3/’04 LDC Kingsbury and Palmer 2002, Palmer, Gildea, Kingsbury, 2005
Wall Street Journal, 1M words, 120K+ predicate instances Brown, 14K predicate instances
Chinese Propbank: www.cis.upenn.edu/~chinese/cpb
Xue and Palmer 2003, Xue 2004
Xinhua (250K words – almost done), Sinorama (250K words – estimated 2007)

PennPropBank II – English/Chinese (100K)
We still need relations between events and entities: Event ID’s with event coreference Selective sense tagging
Tagging nominalizations w/ WordNet senseGrouped WN senses - selected verbs and nouns
Nominal Coreference not names
Clausal Discourse connectives – selected subset
Level of representation that reconciles many surface differences between the languages
17
PennEvent IDs – Parallel Prop II (1)
Aspectual verbs do not receive event IDs:
今年 /this year 中国 /China 继续 /continue 发挥 /play 其 /it 在 /at 支持 /support 外商 /foreign business 投资 /investment 企业 /enterprise 方面 /aspect 的 /DE 主 /main 渠道 /channel 作用 /role
“This year, the Bank of China will continue to play the main role in supporting foreign-invested businesses.”
18
PennEvent IDs – Parallel Prop II (2) Nominalized verbs do:
He will probably be extradited to the US for trial. done as part of sense-tagging (all 7 WN senses for “trial” are events.)
随着 /with 中国 /China 经济 /economy 的 /DE 不断 /continued 发展 /development…
“With the continued development of China’s
economy…”
The same events may be described by verbs in English and nouns in Chinese, or vice versa. Event IDs help to abstract away from POS tag
19
PennEvent reference – Parallel Prop II Pronouns (overt or covert) that refer to events:
[This] is gonna be a word of mouth kind of thing.
这些 /these 成果 /achivements 被 /BEI 企业 /enterprise 用 /apply (e15) 到 /to 生产 /production 上 /on 点石成金 /spin gold from straw , *pro*-e15 大大 /greatly 提高 /improve 了 /le 中国 /China 镍 /nickel 工业 /industry 的 /DE 生产 /production 水平 /level 。
“These achievements have been applied (e15) to production by enterprises to spin gold from straw, which-e15 greatly improved the production level of China’s nickel industry.”
Prerequisites:pronoun classification free trace annotation
