Semantics of prepositional phrases

Task

Upgrade the existing parser to be able to understand all prepositional phrases built with "on".

Background

Prepositional phrases (PPs) are constituents of sentences introduced by a preposition like "on", "over", "in", and so on. The automatic interpretation of PPs is very important for understanding and disambiguating natural language sentences. Computational linguists use special programs, so-called parsers, to analyze natural language expressions. Parsers must "know" the rules, according to which they can analyze the language. This set of rules is called a grammar. Every grammar for a natural language must also have a subset of rules that cover prepositional phrases. These PP-rules can be formulated with the expressional means of MultiNet). The description of this meaning representation language can be found in the MultiNet documentation (H. Helbig, 2005).

Literature
