ABSTRACT
In this paper we present a semantic architecture that was employed for processing two different SemEval 2007 tasks: Task 4 (Classification of Semantic Relations between Nominals) and Task 8 (Metonymy Resolution). The architecture uses multiple forms of syntactic, lexical, and semantic information to inform a classification-based approach that generates a different model for each machine learning algorithm that implements the classification. We used decision trees, decision rules, logistic regression and lazy classifiers. A voting module selects the best performing module for each task evaluated in SemEval 2007. The paper details the results obtained when using the semantic architecture.

UTD: Classifying semantic relations by combining lexical and semantic resources
SemEval '10: Proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Semantic EvaluationThis paper describes our system for SemEval-2010 Task 8 on multi-way classification of semantic relations between nominals. First, the type of semantic relation is classified. Then a relation type-specific classifier determines the relation direction. ...
UTD-SRL: a pipeline architecture for extracting frame semantic structures
SemEval '07: Proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Semantic EvaluationsThis paper describes our system for the task of extracting frame semantic structures in SemEval--2007. The system architecture uses two types of learning models in each part of the task: Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Maximum Entropy (ME). Designed as ...
UTD: determining relational similarity using lexical patterns
SemEval '12: Proceedings of the First Joint Conference on Lexical and Computational Semantics - Volume 1: Proceedings of the main conference and the shared task, and Volume 2: Proceedings of the Sixth International Workshop on Semantic EvaluationIn this paper we present our approach for assigning degrees of relational similarity to pairs of words in the SemEval-2012 Task 2. To measure relational similarity we employed lexical patterns that can match against word pairs within a large corpus of ...
