Abstract


Natural Language Processing is an interdisciplinary subarea of Computer Science and Linguistics that aims to study the generation, representation and understanding of natural language by computers. This article describes the automatic generation of Local Grammars (LGs) for Supporting Verb Constructions (SVC) from six Lexicon-Grammar tables that describe a total of 468 CVS. For this, six parameterized graphs were created using the tool Unitex to extract information from these tables. The LGs generation was done through shell scripts and Unitex. The generated LGs were applied at the corpus aTribuna, where 211 structures in the form of the searched SVC were found.

Keywords: Natural Language Processing, Constructions with Support Verb, Local Grammars, Lexicon-Grammar Tables
