Towards a Heuristic Categorization of Prepositional Phrases in English with WordNet

Abstract

This document discusses an approach and its rudimentary realization towards automatic classification of PPs; the topic, that has not received as much attention in NLP as NPs and VPs. The approach is a rule-based heuristics outlined in several levels of our research. There are 7 semantic categories of PPs considered in this document that we are able to classify from an annotated corpus.
