## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[A Multilingual Predicate Matrix](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lacalle-2016-multilingual-predicate-matrix/)** *(2016 · 24 citations)* Major predicate lexicons such as FrameNet, VerbNet, PropBank and WordNet each capture different aspects of predicate meaning.
2. **[First steps towards a Predicate Matrix](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lacalle-2014-first-steps-predicate-matrix/)** *(2014 · 16 citations)* Predicate lexicons such as FrameNet, VerbNet and PropBank support semantic role labelling and other language-understanding tasks. However, they are expensive to build, cover far fewer items than WordNet, and exist mostly for English. SemLink connects these resources through VerbNet, but its mappings have large gaps.
