Chinese Semantic Dependency Relation System and Treebank Construction

Deep semantic parsing is the key to understand sentence meaning. This paper integrates some Chinese semantic relation systems given by different scholars, and presents a more comprehensive system for semantic dependency parsing. The new semantic relation system includes the definition for the situation that a verb acts as a modifier and a verbal noun acts as the center of the noun phrase. According to the relation system, a large scale Chinese semantic dependency relation tree bank is constructed by the combination of automatic and manual means. This semantic dependency tree bank will become a basis of studying deep semantic parsing.
