Snider and Diab try to induce such classes automatically from the Arabic Treebank (ATB). Their basis is the Levin Hypothesis: verbs that behave alike syntactically also share parts of their meaning. 2. **[Unsupervised Induction of Modern Standard Arabic Verb Classes Using Syntactic Frames and LSA](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/snider-2006-unsupervised-induction-modern-standard-arabic-p06-2102/)** *(2006 · 7 citations)* The paper addresses a gap: Modern Standard Arabic has no Levin-style classification grouping verbs by shared syntactic behaviour and, by the Levin Hypothesis, shared meaning components. ## Co-authors here 1 co-author with a page, the most papers together first. - [Mona Diab](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mona-diab/) ×2 ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2006](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2006/) - [Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/naacl/): [NAACL 2006](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/naacl/2006/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 3 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [1 citing paper with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/neal-snider/cited-by/).
