On the Computational Usability of Valence Dictionaries for Polish

971

Abstract
Valence dictionaries, i.e., dictionaries specifying possible arguments of words, usually verbs, play an important role in natural language processing (NLP): they are used, e.g., in syntactic parsing, part-of-speech tagging, information extraction and in word sense disambiguation. The aim of this report is to critically evaluate the design of existing valence dictionaries for Polish and to identify their strengths and weaknesses. This is a preliminary step towards the design of a reusable valence dictionaries for Polish, useful in NLP applications.

Keywords : NLP, valence, MRDs, syntactic dictionaries.
