"text": "Semantic role labeling is the process of generating sets of semantic roles from syntactic analyses. The process of training a semantic role labeler, however, is costly in resources. First, it requires gold-standard semantic role data, like Propbank (Palmer et al., 2005) . Secondly, it requires a detailed syntactic annotation of the same resource. We are fortunate to have the reasonablysized Penn Treebank (Marcus et al., 1993) and adaptations for formalisms like Tree Adjoining Grammar (Chen and Shanker, 2004) and Combinatory Categorial Grammar (Hockenmaier and Steedman, 2007) alongside the Propbank data, but for other languages, such resources are unlikely to be available. There has been work in generating semantic role labelers using gold-standard trees in the absence of semantic training data (F\u00fcrstenau and Lapata, 2009; Lang and Lapata, 2010) . But what if we had semantic training data, but no syntactic training data? If we could develop and train a semantic role labeler without syntactic training data, we could greatly reduce the cost and development time of NLP tools for languages of interest. One option is to use some automatic means to generate a treebank -instead of creating a corpus of syntax trees by hand, we could use an automatic parser. This, however, leads to a chicken-and-egg problem -we would need a high-quality parse model to choose a single-best analysis for each training sentence, and a parse model needs syntactic training data. No automatic parser can currently generate high quality single-best parses in the absence of a parse model. But a parser can, given word tags and combinatory rules, generate a parse forest -a very large collection of possible analyses -and say little or nothing about their relative merit. In this paper, we extract SRL features from the entire parse forest, effectively training on every possible parse in the training set simultaneously. This can be done efficiently by representing the parse chart as a hypergraph, enabling us to iterate over every constituent in the parse forest without enumerating every individual parse (which would be computationally infeasible). This, combined with the parsing advantages afforded by Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG), enables us to train a semantic role labeler without gold-standard trees.",

"text": "Combinatory Categorial Grammar (Steedman, 2000) is a grammar formalism that describes words in terms of their combinatory potential. For example, determiners belong to the category NP/N, or \"the category of words that become noun phrases when combined with a noun to the right\". The rightmost category indicates the argument that the category is seeking, the leftmost category indicates the result of combining this category with its argument, and the slash indicates the direction of combination. Categories can be nested within each other: a transitive verb like devoured belongs to the category (S\\NP)/NP, or \"the category that would become a sentence if it could combine with a noun phrase to the right and another noun phrase to the left\". The process of automatically assigning CCG categories to words is called \"supertagging\", and CCG categories are sometimes informally referred to as \"supertags\". An example of how categories combine to make sentences is shown in Figure 1 . CCG has many capabilities that go beyond that of a typical context-free grammar. First, it has a sophisticated internal system of managing syntactic heads and dependencies 1 . These dependencies are used to great effect in CCG-based semantic role labeling systems (Gildea and Hockenmaier, 2003; Boxwell et al., 2009) , as they do not suffer the same data-sparsity effects encountered with treepath features in CFG-based SRL systems. Secondly, CCG permits these dependencies to be passed through intermediary categories in grammatical structures like relative clauses. In Figure 2 , the steak is still in the object relation to devoured, even though the verb is inside a relative clause. Finally and most importantly, these dependencies are represented directly on the CCG categories themselves. This is crucial for the prediction of semantic roles inside a packed parse chart -because the dependency is formed when the two heads combine, it is available to be used as a local feature by the semantic role labeler. This property of CCG and its impact on packed-chart SRL is described extensively in Boxwell et al. (2010) . This ability to predict dependencies (and semantic roles) at parse time figures heavily into the process described here.",

"text": "1 A complete explanation of CCG predicate-argument dependencies can be found in the CCGbank user manual (Hockenmaier and Steedman, 2005) 2 Found at http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/ boxwell/software/brutus.html It is trained using CCGbank and a version of Propbank that has been aligned to the CCGbank in order to account for discrepancies in terminal indexation (Honnibal and Curran, 2007; Boxwell and White, 2008) . The system is organized in a twostage pipeline of maximum entropy models 3 , following the organization of a previous CFG-style approach (Punyakanok et al., 2008) . The first stage is the identification stage, where, for each predicate in the sentence, each word is tagged as either a role or a nonrole (figure 3). The second stage is the classification stage, where the roles are sorted into ARG0, ARG1, and so on (figure 4). The identification model and the classification model share the same features, but they are trained and run separately. For the results presented here, we use a version of Brutus that has been stripped down to only use local features so as to enable us to perform SRL at parse time. Recall from section 1 that we wish to extract training features not from a complete parse tree, but from a packed parse chart. For this reason, global features (those that are inaccessible to a single edge in the parse chart) cannot be used. After removing all global features from the seman-tic role labeler, the local features that remain are as follows:",

"text": "The CHART identification model performs poorly because it does not recognize syntactic dependencies as good predictors of semantic roles. Suppose that instead of using that identification model, we used a simple heuristic: if there is a syntactic dependency between a word and the predicate, then label that word with a semantic role -otherwise, do not. This simple identification \"model\" requires no training -it simply relies on the pattern that semantic role bearing units tend to be joined to their predicates by syntactic dependencies. We will refer to this as the chart-dependency model, or C-DEP. In addition to this model, we propose another model that similarly identifies roles with dependencies, but enumerates certain exceptional dependencies that do not predict semantic roles (like those originating from auxiliary verbs like to and has) according to the Propbank guidelines. We will refer to this as the improved chartdependency model, or C-DEP+ 4 . In both cases, the classification model is identical to that of the CHART model. Tables 4 and 5 show the effect of using the two chart-dependency identification models compared to the GOLD and CHART models from section 5. Performance using the C-DEP and C-DEP+ models greatly improves on the disappointing recall of the CHART model, while retaining the favorable property of eschewing gold-standard syntactic training data. Instead of systematically weakening the most predictive identification feature available, the simple identification models use only that feature. This results in a major improvement in recall at the cost of an acceptable drop in precision. In the experiments described in sections 5 and 6, we used four different training methods to generate semantic role labeling models, which are then tested on gold standard syntactic parses and parses that were automatically generated from gold-standard supertags. But much of the challenge of parsing in CCG comes down to the choice of supertags -choosing the correct supertag for a preposition, for example, makes the difference between attaching the prepositional phrase high or low. But surely using gold-standard supertags gives us an unfair advantage; in realworld applications, these supertags would have to be predicted. We could use an off-the-shelf CCG supertagger (Clark and Curran, 2004a) , but this would open us to the same chicken-and-egg problem already encountered with automatic parsers -the C&C supertagger is trained on gold-standard syntactic data. Doing without a supertagger and using every possible supertag in a tag dictionary is computationally infeasible; most words have at least two or three possible tags; the most ambiguous word has 133 supertags (as). Therefore, we have no choice but to investigate ways to get supertags that do not rely on goldstandard syntactic annotation. We use a weakly supervised approach to supertagging that augments an HMM with an oracle CCG tag dictionary and a set of broad grammar-informed constraints (Baldridge, 2008; Ravi et al., 2010) . The tag dictionary provides only a simple mapping from word to supertag -it does not use any kind of cutoff, nor does it give a prior probability on individual supertags. Using an HMM that has been initialized with grammar-based transition probabilities, combined with a two-stage integer programming strategy, this approach can achieve single-best accuracy of 64.3% on ambiguous supertags. These supertags are then used to generate parse forests, which are used to train the CHART, C-DEP, and C-DEP+ models. Notice that, although most of the tag sequences do not produce spanning analyses, we can still produce a packed chart and generate SRL training features. We also train a secondary discriminative supertagger using the induced tags that are the output of the tag-dictionary-based HMM supertagger for the training set, and use this supertagger with the parser from section 4 to generate single-best parses to test the SRL models on. It is necessary to train a secondary supertagger over the induced tags because the induced tags by themseleves are unlikely to produce a spanning analysis. The induced supertags from the HMM are only given for the most probable sequence from the HMM; using the beta-best tag predictions of the secondary supertagger produces acceptable coverage. This supertagger is a simple Maxent tagger conditioned on a 5-word window surrounding the target word and trained using a gaussian prior of 5. SRL performance over automatic parses generated with these predicted supertags is not as strong as with gold standard supertags, but is reasonable considering the absence of syntactic training data. Results for the development set are shown in table 6, and results for the test set are shown in table 7.",

For example, it is difficult to think of a valid category for the determiner the besides NP/N. The word the almost always has the category NP/N in CCGbank. CCGbank does assign other categories for the, though most, if not all, of them are errors. Table 8 shows the token frequencies of select cate-gories for the from the training set of CCGbank. Even though there are 46 possible categories in all, only one of them is really worth considering (18 of the categories appear only once). The automatic method for inducing supertags from the tag dictionary, however, frequently predicts categories for the that are extremely rare in the English CCGbank. This is because the tag dictionary is generated with no cutoff and provides no prior probability across tags -each tag in the dictionary is given equal consideration by the Markov Model, which ranks them according to how well they interact with their neighbors. For this reason, we revisit our earlier decision to generate a tag dictionary with no cutoff. Instead, we generate a tag dictionary of categories that make up at least 10% of the word tokens. For example, suppose the word direct appears in the corpus 100 times. For a category to be listed for the word direct in the tag dictionary, it must appear as the category for direct no fewer than 10 times. This can effectively eliminate a large number of very rare categories that overwhelm the HMM. It also more closely simulates a hand-written tag dictionary for closed-class words, or a tag dictionary that was generated automatically from a traditional part-of-speech dictionary. Using a tag dictionary with a 10% cutoff greatly improves performance on semantc role labeling, coming to within 7% accuracy of using gold-standard supertags. The results for the development set are shown in table 9, and the results for the test set are shown in table 10.

This method makes the identifier exceptionally timid, and on the rare occasion that a word is identified as a role-bearing unit, it is often assigned roles corresponding to every predicate in the sentence.

This can be achieved by using a simple baseline parser to generate a parse forest for a large amount of unannotated newspaper text, then extracting training instances from all possible syntactic analyses simultaneously. This approach is most effective when we have some syntactic knowledge of the sentence in the form of supertags, but is still effective when only a tagging dictionary is available. In the future, we hope to expand this work into other languages. Armed only with a Propbanklike corpus of semantic roles and a tag dictionary, we can train a surprisingly effective semantic role lableler. To this end, we hope to further investigate issues surrounding the generation of supertagsparticularly, minimally supervised approaches to generating CCG tag dictionaries. Recall that performance actually improved when very rare categories were excluded from the tag dictionary; one option to achieve similar results is to annotate by hand, say, the 200 most common words (almost certainly syntactically interesting closed class words), then using these to guide the generation of a comprehensive tag dictionary, or perhaps by bootstrapping from traditional part-of-speech tags. It would also be beneficial to investigate alternate methods of inducing tags from the tag dictionary that produce n-best tag predictions, as this would improve coverage over the training set. Another avenue of future research could be the generation of semantic predictions without committing single-best test sentences. Recall that in order to test the semantic role labeler, we needed to generate parse trees for the target sentences. Because we assume that gold-standard syntactic training data is not available, we use a subbaseline model that requires no training data. But is it really necessary to choose a single best parse at all? Because the version of Brutus used here can extract features from inside the chart, it can also predict semantic roles at parse time (Boxwell et al., 2010) . We could therefore predict all possible roles in the chart and explore ways of identifying likely rolesets, using a mechanism for the enforcement of global constraints, such as the integer linear programming solution of Punyakanok et al (2008) .",
