Title : Frame Semantics, FrameNet, and the Multimodal Shift

Abstract: In this talk we will present the general idea of semantic frames and how they are represented in its computational implementation, FrameNet, as a language model. We go through FrameNet fundamentals - frames, frame elements, frame to frame relations - and present how it started as a lexicographic project and how we shifted it to a multimodal resource for Natural Language Processing projects.
