Projecting Propbank Roles onto the CCGbank

This paper describes a method of accurately projecting Propbank roles onto constituents in the CCGbank and automatically annotating verbal categories with the semantic roles of their arguments. This method will be used to improve the structure of the derivations in the CCGbank and to facilitate research on semantic role tagging and broad coverage generation with CCG.
