Multiword expressions (MWEs) are a class of linguistic forms spanning conventional word
boundaries that are both idiosyncratic and pervasive across different languages. The …

Despite their success in a variety of NLP tasks, pre-trained language models, due to their
heavy reliance on compositionality, fail in effectively capturing the meanings of multiword …

We present a novel representation, evaluation measure, and supervised models for the task
of identifying the multiword expressions (MWEs) in a sentence, resulting in a lexical …

This paper introduces a task of identifying and semantically classifying lexical expressions in
running text. We investigate the online reviews genre, adding semantic supersense …

We present a transition-based system that jointly predicts the syntactic structure and lexical
units of a sentence by building two structures over the input words: a syntactic dependency …

This task combines the labeling of multiword expressions and supersenses (coarse-grained
classes) in an explicit, yet broad-coverage paradigm for lexical semantics. Nine systems …

One of the basic ideas underlying linguistic modelling is compositionality (Baggio et al.
2012), seen as a property of language items (Janssen 2001; Partee et al. 1990) or of …

Scarcity of multiword expression data sets raises a fundamental challenge to evaluating the
systems that deal with these linguistic structures. In this work we attempt to address this …

In this chapter, we provide an overview of the main concepts relating to corpus annotation,
along with some discussion of the practical aspects of creating annotated texts and working …

Formulaic sequences (FSs) are pervasive in natural language use and play an important
role in differentiating socially-situated practices. The predominant trend in this research area …
