Walenty (2016-04-28)

Walenty is a valence dictionary of Polish developed at the Institute of Computer Science, Polish Academy of Sciences (IPI PAN). The original formalism of Walenty was established by Filip Skwarski, Elzbieta Hajnicz, Agnieszka Patejuk, Adam Przepiorkowski, Marcin Wolinski, Marek Świdzinski, and Magdalena Zawislawska. It has been further developed by Elzbieta Hajnicz, Agnieszka Patejuk, Adam Przepiorkowski, and Marcin Wolinski. The semantic layer has been developed by Elzbieta Hajnicz and Anna Andrzejczuk. The original seed of Walenty was provided by the automatic conversion, manually reviewed by Filip Skwarski, of the verbal valence dictionary used by the Świgra2 parser (6396 schemata for 1462 lemmata), which was in turn based on SDPV, the Syntactic Dictionary of Polish Verbs by Marek Świdzinski (4148 schemata for 1064 lemmata). Afterwards, Walenty has been developed independently by adding new entries, syntactic schemata, in particular phraseological ones, and semantic frames. Walenty has been edited and compiled using the Slowal tool (http://zil.ipipan.waw.pl/Slowal) created by Bartlomiej Niton and Tomasz Bartosiak.
