A French Corpus Annotated for Multiword Expressions with Adverbial Function
Provides a new resource for French NLP, but the annotation is limited to adverbial MWEs and no performance improvements are demonstrated.
The authors created a French corpus annotated for multiword expressions with adverbial function, intended for research in information retrieval and syntactic parsing. The corpus is publicly available.
This paper presents a French corpus annotated for multiword expressions (MWEs) with adverbial function. This corpus is designed for investigation on information retrieval and extraction, as well as on deep and shallow syntactic parsing. We delimit which kind of MWEs we annotated, we describe the resources and methods we used for the annotation, and we briefly comment the results. The annotated corpus is available at http://infolingu.univ-mlv.fr/ under the LGPLLR license.
