Construction Grammar
• Only 1 type of entity: constructions• Construction is pairing of form and meaning
(Saussure’s sign)• Words, MWEs are lexical constructions• Non-lexical constructions: Subject-predicate,
left isolation (“extraction”), modification• mono-stratal, no deep vs. surface• examples from What’s X doing Y? (Kay and
Fillmore 1999)

What is a semantic frame?
What do you annotate?
![Page 13: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Semantic Frames• Frame: Semantic frames are schematic
representations of situations involving variousparticipants, props, and other conceptualroles, each of which is called a frameelement (FE)
• These include events, states, and relations• What were called in earlier work on Frame
Semantics “scenes” and “scenarios” are allrepresented in FrameNet by one data type,the frame.
• Frames are connected to each other viaframe-to-frame relations
![Page 14: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Frame Elements (FEs)• Frame Element (FE): The participants, props
and roles of a frame. These can includeagents, inanimate objects, and elements ofthe setting.
• The syntactic dependents (broadly construed)of a predicating word correspond to the frameelements of the frame (or frames) associatedwith that word.
• Each FE is defined relative to a single frame.Any connections between FEs have to bemade explicitly.
![Page 15: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Lexical Unit (LU)• The pairing of a lemma with a meaning; a
word sense. The meaning is partiallyexpressed by the relation between the lemmaand a FN frame, i.e. between lexical form(s)and the semantic frame they evoke.
• Includes inflected forms see, saw seen• Includes multi-word expressions (MWEs):
pick out, lose sleep, spitting image, familypractitioner
• May be any part of speech: verbs, nouns,adjectives, prepositions, etc.
![Page 16: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
LU Definitions
• In addition to the connection to theframe, the FN database also includes adefinition of each LU.
• The LU definition is human-readable(we hope), similar to a dictionarydefinition, and represents aspects ofmeaning finer than the framedistinctions.
![Page 17: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Placing Frame: Definition
• Generally without overall (translational)motion, an Agent places a Theme at alocation, the Goal, which is profiled. In thisframe, the Theme is under the control of theAgent/Cause at the time of its arrival at theGoal.
• This frame differs from Filling in that itfocuses on the Theme rather than the effecton the Goal entity. It differs from Removing infocusing on the Goal rather than the Sourceof motion for the Theme.
![Page 18: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

The Revenge Frame
![Page 22: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Revenge Frame: Definition
• This frame concerns the infliction of punishment inreturn for a wrong suffered. An Avenger performs aPunishment on a Offender as a consequence of anearlier action by the Offender, the Injury.
• The Avenger inflicting the Punishment need not bethe same as the Injured_Party who suffered theInjury, but the Avenger does have to share thejudgment that the Offender's action was wrong.
• The judgment that the Offender had inflicted an Injuryis made without regard to the law.
![Page 23: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

![Page 24: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Core FEs
• Inherent in the concept of the frameitself
• The most frame-specific FEs; core FEsdifferences serve to differentiate frames
• Must be annotated for every instance ofthe frame
![Page 25: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Peripheral FEs
• Ontologically necessary, but not reallyframe-specific
• Often presupposed, deprofiled
• Bindings to high-level frames– Event ->Place, Time
– Intentionally_act -> Reason
![Page 26: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Extra-thematic FEs
• Not actually part of the frame inquestion; �the same across frames
• Beneficiary, description, etc.
• Really amount to evocation of aseparate frame
• But appear frequently in sentences,should be annotated at the same time
![Page 27: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Apply heat Frame: Definition
• A Cook applies heat to Food, where theTemperature_setting of the heat andDuration of application may be specified. AHeating_instrument, generally indicated bya locative phrase, may also be expressed.Some cooking methods involve the use of aMedium (e.g. milk or water) by which heat istransferred to the Food. A less semanticallyprominent Food or Cook is markedCo_participant.

Null Instantiation• CNI (“constructional null instantiation”)
grammatically licensed– e.g.,missing subject of imperative
Please leave the room.• INI (“indefinite null instantiation”)
existential; lexically licensed– e.g., missing objects of some activity verbs
I’ve been baking all afternoon.• DNI (“definite null instantiation”)
anaphoric; lexically licensed– e.g., omitted complements of some cognitive
verbs She already knows.
![Page 38: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The art of frame definition• Not a science, but not haphazard, either
• Try to make useful generalizationsacross reasonable-sized groups
• FN proceeds frame by frame rather thanlemma by lemma
• All LUs in a frame have the same FEs,with the same profiling / coreness
• Respect stative / inchoative / causativedistinction
![Page 39: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The Lexicographic Process
• Vanguarding
• Subcorporation
• Annotation
• Reports and data distribution
![Page 40: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
“Vanguarding”
• Frames, FEs, and LUs defined–corpus, otherresources
• Rules written to extract examples of allsyntactic patterns, some collocations
• Rules can include commands to pre-markFEs on chunks
• “Other” subcorpus for unforeseen patterns
![Page 41: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Subcorporation
• Non-interactive, command-line process
• Down-sample when necessary for verycommon lemmas
• Subcorpora produced by matchingchunked sentences against rules– Slow
– Parse-specific
– Complex, cascaded filter
![Page 42: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Annotation
• Annotator chooses “good_ examples ofeach lexicographically relevantsyntactic pattern (“alternations”)
• All core FEs found are annotated foreach sentence
• If the predicator is a verb, core FEs notexpressed in the sentence areannotated as “null instantiated_
![Page 43: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Annotation
• Each annotation set contains labels onmultiple layers: FE, GF, PT, etc.
• GF and PT added semi-automatically
• Process allows multiple targets(annotation sets) per sentence (notneeded for lexicographic work)
• Goal is ~15-20 clear examples / LU
![Page 44: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

FE-to-FE relations acrossframes
• Every frame relation (except See also)is accompanied by one or more FE-to-FE relations.
• At the moment, there is only one type ofFE-FE relation, which is “subtype of”(possibly improper).
• This may change.
![Page 49: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

Inheritance
• All FEs of parent are bound to FEs ofchild
• Child FEs need not have same name
• Child can have more FEs
• Child semantics is a subtype of parentsemantics
• Any within-frame FE-FE relations ofparent are duplicated in child

Inform
• The meaning of inform that we wish to describebelongs to a Telling frame; here the emphasis is ongetting information to an addressee, and is thusdistinct from Saying.– The Telling frame is shared by inform, tell, notify, etc.,
Saying is shared by say, announce, state, whisper, etc.
• The meaning of inform in the Telling frame is distinctfrom the sense it has as a member of the Reportingframe, where it occurs as part of a phrasal verb,inform on. Other members of this frame are report(they reported me to the authorities), tell on, rat on,fink on.

Other patterns withTelling.inform?
• Those examples showed just one of the syntacticpatterns available to inform in the Telling frame:simple active sentences with a that-clauseexpressing the Message. If the Message isexpressed with a NP, the preposition of can beselected.– Passive with that: Were [you] informed [that
Shelly has left home]?– Active with of: [I] already informed [you] [of my
decision].– Passive with of: Had [you] been informed [of the

• Violation, in the sense we have in mind, belongs tothe negative-response set of lexical units in theCompliance frame.
• Alongside of X violated the rule we have X is aviolation of the rule and X is in violation of the rule.
• The X in these formulas can stand for– the Protagonist (we),– the Act (what we did), or– the State_of_affairs (our situation).

Commitment
• The noun commitment in the intended sense belongsto the Commitment frame.
• Other words sharing this frame include commit, vow,oath, swear, promise, covenant (some are verbs,some are nouns, some are both).
• All of them have to do with illocutionary acts that bindtheir speakers to a course of action.
• This sense of commitment takes the support verbmake.– Are you afraid to make a commitment?– You’ve made a commitment now, so you’d better honor it.
![Page 91: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Support Verbs and Polysemy
Commitment also occurs in theInstitutionalization frame: committing a person to amental hospital. That meaning does not welcomethe support verb make.
The verb commit itself is a support verb forcrimes and sins: to commit murder is the same asto murder. But this use of commit has commission,not commitment, as its nominalization!
![Page 92: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Full Text Annotation
• Text annotation is relatively recent taskfor FN– 5 texts from PropBank, for comparison with
PB annotation (NSF subcontract)
– 15 texts from NTI website-- CNS countryprofiles, etc. (AQUINAS)
• Must deal with syntactic complexity, etc.
![Page 93: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Lexicography vs. Full Text
• Lexicography: Need to fill out frames, fullyexemplify LUs, create training data formachine learning
• Text annotation: Need to create new frames,LUs quickly, maximally reuse, fewerexamples of rare LUs, more of common ones
• Created new text-annotation form to speedup finding same LU across text(s)
![Page 94: Frame Semantics, Constructions, and the FrameNet Lexical Database](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071601/613d4103736caf36b75b256b/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
PropBank• Closest annotation project to FrameNet in
many ways• Starts from Penn TreeBank, mainly WSJ• Annotates arguments and adjuncts of verbs,
with labels like Arg0, Arg1, ArgM• These general labels are given definitions
specific to each word sense• Some generalization across LUs, but no true
semantic frames• Now supplemented with NomBank for nouns

Modeling SentenceProcessing
• Ulrike Padó 2006 (conference?)
• Semantic/syntactic “garden path”– The hunter shot by the teenager was quite
young.
– The deer shot by the hunter was trulyimpressive.
• FN/PB comparison– PB better coverage
– FN better modeling

The SALSA Project
• Manfred Pinkal, Universität desSaarlandes
• Starts from TIGER German treebank
• Adds FrameNet labels to constituents
• Own annotation tool, TIGER XML
• Where FN frames do not yet exist,creates “unknowns”, annotatessomewhat like PropBank

FN in OWL DL
• Jan Scheffczyk (Bundeswehr U, ICSIPost-doc) and Srini Narayanan (ICSI)(OntoLex 2006)
• Frame db in OWL DL, reasoning withstandard tools
• Frames, FEs = classes; annotations =instances
• Program for converting Annotation dbinto OWL DL, too big to distribute all

Linking FN to SUMO
• Jan Scheffczyk and Michael Ellsworth(ICSI) (OntoLex 2006)
• Links expressed in SUMO KIF
• Manually specified links from FNsemantic types to SUMO nodes
• Semi-automatically link roughly 1/2 ofFEs to SUMO nodes
• SUMO already linked to WN
