Dive into advanced natural language processing concepts in this comprehensive lecture from CMU's CS 11-711 course. Explore dependency parsing algorithms, feature structures, and subcategorization frames. Gain insights into semantic roles, PropBank, and FrameNet. Examine the question "What is a semantic representation?" and delve into topics such as model-theoretic semantics, formal models, logic, and quantifiers. Learn about theorem provers, theme roles, and diathesis alternation. Enhance your understanding of both syntactic and semantic aspects of NLP through this in-depth presentation by Bob Frederking.
