Chinese Semantic Role Labeling using High-quality Syntactic Knowledge

This paper presents an application of Chinese syntactic knowledge for semantic role labeling (SRL). Besides basic morphological information, syntactic structures are crucial in SRL. However, it is difficult to learn such information from limited, small-scale, manually annotated training data. Instead of manually increasing the size of annotated data, we use a large amount of automatically extracted syntactic knowledge to improve the performance of SRL.
