    EVALUATION RESOURCES
    for English subcategorization acquisition systems

    We are pleased to announce the availability of resources for evaluating and
    comparing the performance of English subcategorization acquisition systems.

    These resources, developed at Cambridge University, include:

    - An evaluation corpus and a gold standard for
       a set of 30 test verbs

    - Software which can be used to automatically evaluate
       acquired subcategorization lexicons against the gold
       standard

    - Our results, obtained by the current version of
       Briscoe and Carroll's subcategorization acquisition
       system

    We have made our results available for comparison, and would be pleased to
    hear about the results obtained by other systems.

    You can find these resources at
    http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/users/alk23/subcat/subcat.html
