The verb laugh of sentence 2 is normally considered an intransitive manner of speaking verb (e.g. The crowd laughed at the clown), but in this sentence, the verb is coerced into the caused motion interpretation and the semantics of the verb gives the manner in which the movement happened (e.g. the crowd caused the clown to move off the stage by means of laughing). The semantics parallel one another: both sentences have a causal argument responsible for the event, an argument in motion, and a path that specifies the initial, middle, or final location, state or condition of the argument in motion (Hwang et al., 2013) .", | |

The previous experiment on removing NON-CMC verbs effectively brought up the percentage of positive labels for the CMC and DISPLACE labels to 20% and 11%, respectively. However, label proportions of 20-80 or, worse, 11-89 are still highly unbalanced. Several studies have shown that in cases of training size imbalance, downsampling data can help with the performance of supervised classifiers (Weiss and Provost, 2001; Kubat and Matwin, 1997) . Thus, for this experiment, we randomly downsample the negative labels in the WSJ training data to increase the percentage of positive labels 3 . For the sake of simplicity, we base the downsampling proportions on the CMC label: we cut the negative label so that the CMC label makes up 25% (Downsample1 \"D1\") and 30% (Downsample2 \"D2\")of the total data. The proportions of the DISPLACE labels are, therefore, 14.0% (D1)and 16.8% (D2), respectively. Table 9 shows the performance of the WSJ models on the downsampled training set. The results indicate that the downsampling of the negative labels in the training data leads to increased performance. We have also tested the semantic feature set and the Baseline+P feature set as well. are approximately equal with no significant difference from the Baseline+PV, so we do not include those numbers. We observe a large increase in the recall values, resulting in the overall improvement of the classifiers trained on downsampled data 4 . Interestingly, with the random downsampling of the training data, we see a boost in the full feature set's performance far more than the Baseline+PV set's performance. In fact, in all cases we observed that the full features now show a significantly higher performance than the other features (McNemar, p < 0.05). The observed results for the two downsampled classifiers are not statistically distinct from one another.", | |

The most obvious next step in this investigation will involve experimentation with automatically obtained features. Additionally, we hope to examine the impact of further features. As the experiments have shown, the lexical and semantic features (lemma, preposition, VerbNet classes) surface as strong predictors of CMCs. It follows from this, that we should expand the feature search to other semantic information. One particular set of features that might be interesting, would be based on FrameNet frames. Since FrameNet's frames represent different conceptual semantic domains, features from FrameNet may be instrumental at capturing and highlighting the semantics of CMCs that are spread across VerbNet classes of differing semantic types. Moreover, it would also be interesting to expand on the lexical features: lexical features can be extended to not just the verb of the sentence but also to the noun phrases. Further investigation into using resources like WordNet (Miller, 1995; Fellbaum et al., 1998) might be needed to remedy sparse data issues that lexical features based on words from the noun phrases might create.", | |
