Towards Universal Semantic Representation

Abstract: Natural language understanding at the semantic level and independent of language variations is of great practical value. Existing approaches such as semantic role labeling (SRL) and abstract meaning representation (AMR) still have features related to the peculiarities of the particular language. In this work we describe various challenges and possible solutions in designing a semantic representation that is universal across a variety of languages.

“…Cross-lingual approaches to AMR parsing explore transfer learning techniques to generate parallel AMR annotations in multiple languages, and suggest that AMR can serve as a cross-lingual semantic representation capable of overcoming linguistic differences (Damonte and Cohen, 2018;Zhu et al, 2019;Blloshmi et al, 2020).…”

“…Kuhlmann and Oepen (2016) follow up on the SemEval paper and describe graph properties of the three frameworks from the SemEval task, plus CCG Dependencies and Abstract Meaning Representation. Zhu, Li, and Chiticariu (2019) take two approaches, namely, the semantic role labeling approach of the PropBank project and Abstract Meaning Representation, as a point of departure to propose and discuss which issues are to be covered by the universal semantic representation (with the focus on temporal features and modality).…”
