| 研究実績の概要 |
The research aim has been to develop methods of visualising and making accessible semantic information from analyses of Japanese and English, e.g., predicate argument information, but also higher levels of analysis, such as propositional connectives as well as modals, negation and factors of discourse.
The key part of this work has been the development of a visualisation tool for semantic relationships derivable from a parsed corpus. This enables human annotators to assess whether their interpretations of discourse have been adequately captured by the parsed corpus. As now realised, this tool has the capability of capturing many relationships found in discourse, providing a framework in which a fleshed out account of semantic roles, quantification, and modality becomes feasible.

1: 当初の計画以上に進展している
理由
The visualisation tool is now being used as a key part in the creation and presentation chain of three corpus resources: the NINJAL Parsed Corpus of Modern Japanese (NPCMJ; (http://npcmj.ninjal.ac.jp), the Oxford-NINJAL Corpus of Old Japanese (ONCOJ; http://oncoj.ninjal.ac.jp/?lang=en), and the Treebank Semantics Parsed Corpus (TSPC; http://www.compling.jp/ajb129/tspc.html).
The developed visualisation tool has revealed layers of dependencies that were not easily visible before. At the same time, the tool has revealed
inadequacies of analyses in the present state of the corpus data.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Until now, two essential components for establishing semantic dependencies (allocation of "sort" information and the specification of clause linkages) have been handled by a small number of specialists who are able to cache out the results of complex grammatical rules (such as involve an antecedent hierarchy) and build these into annotation information without the aid of visualisation tools.
Now the project is in a position to turn these tasks over to non-specialists who need only have intuitions about meaningful relationships in texts and enough knowledge to be able to spot whether they are represented in the visualisation or not.
Only after reviewing the results of a program of annotation that takes advantage of this new technology can the adequacy of the tool be properly assessed, and the feasibility of including additional layers of semantic information be ascertained.
For the remainder of the term of the project the plan is to increase the volume of relevant data by hiring annotators, and to publicise the results of the project domestically and abroad at academic conferences.
