Swedish FrameNet (SweFN++)
Access to multi-layered lexical, grammatical and semantic information representing text content is a prerequisite for efficient automatic understanding and generation of natural language. A FrameNet is considered a valuable resource for both linguistics and language technology research that may contribute to the achievement of these goals.
Currently, FrameNet-like resources exist for a few languages, see the Berkeley FrameNet. Swedish is not one of them, although there have been some pilot studies exploring the semi-automatic acquisition of Swedish frames.
At the University of Gothenburg, we are now embarking on a project to build a Swedish FrameNet-like resource. A novel feature of this project is that the Swedish FrameNet will be an integral part of a larger many-faceted lexical resource. Hence the name Swedish FrameNet++ (SweFN++).
