Problem sentences

  1. I gave the dog food. I gave the dog much food.

    The second sentence is not analyzed at all. If the two sentences are given to the SRL independently, the arguments are correctly identified.

  2. I gave the dog food. I gave the dog a lot of food.

    The second gave is identified as an AM-MOD. When the second sentence is given alone, this doesn’t happen.

  3. “I gave the dog food. ” vs. “I gave the dog a lot of food.”

    The first sentence is analyzed incorrectly. Can this be fixed using proper subcategorization or maybe with the correct sense of the predicate?

Nom SRL predicates

We need a better way to pick NOM SRL predicates. Try the following sentences:

  1. His thought was that the building is falling.

    thought is missed because the POS tagger does not identify it as a noun.
