Abstract
Most Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) systems rely on available annotated corpora, being PropBank the most widely used corpus so far. Propbank role set is based on theory-neutral numbered arguments, which are linked to fine grained verb-dependant semantic roles through the verb framesets. Recently, thematic roles from the computational verb lexicon VerbNet have been suggested to be more adequate for generalization and portability of SRL systems, since they represent a compact set of verb-independent general roles widely used in linguistic theory. Such thematic roles could also put SRL systems closer to application needs. This paper presents a comparative study of the behavior of a state-of-theart SRL system on both role role sets based on the SemEval-2007 English dataset, which comprises the 50 most frequent verbs in PropBank.
