Could I use this API for Semantic Role Labeling ??

[silver...@gmail.com]

Hi every body,

Sorry for my silly question but I'm not so expert with API

Could someone help me If I can use this API to label a sentence semantically ?? In other words, I want the input to be a sentence not a word and after that I would like to label as much possible as according to VerbNet and FrameNet labeling rules and classes?

Is that possible? If yes, can you please write a simple example of code for that??

Many thanks in Advance

Hi,

the Uby API as a standalone tool is just a means to query a UBY database.

In order to perform a text processing task such as semantic role labeling, the Uby API has to be queried from within a text processing framework, such as the UIMA-based DKPro Core component collection for natural language processing, see https://code.google.com/p/dkpro-core-asl/.

There is a lot of background and information on UIMA-based text processing with Uby and DKPro Core, including sample code, in the recent UBY tutorial (May 2015), see the link here: https://code.google.com/p/uby/

While there are no code specific examples covering the the annotation of semantic roles, you might get an idea how this could be done.
Mind, however, that this would be a knowledge-based annotation which is not as robust as statistical semantic role labeling systems.

Best
