__Work Package 5__: **Parsing-enabled MWE linking** * **Partners in charge**: LI (Agata Savary) and LIF (Carlos Ramisch) * **Partners involved**: LI, LIF, LIGM * **Objectives**: To develop a MWE linking system, which links the MWEs recognized by the parsers of WP3 and WP4 to their corresponding entries in knowledge bases (lexicons and Linked Open Data) * **Final product**: * **FP.5.1**: An MWE linking system for French * **Subtasks**: * **WP 5.1**: MWE normalization * **WP 5.2**: MWE disambiguation ------ **Results:** Caroline Pasquer (PhD thesis, funded by PARSEME-FR, supervised by Agata Savary and Carlos Ramisch) has published an article on the variability of verbal MWEs in the French dataset of the PARSEME Shared Task (cf. Pasquer RECITAL 2017). **Work in progress:** Specifications of a system for identifying and merging MWE variants to be applied to entity linking and automatic annotation of treebanks.
