TL;DR: An effective implementation is described that uses the syntactic information in the complex valency frames to resolve some of the standard parsing ambiguities, thereby improving the analysis results.
Abstract: In this paper an exploitation of the verb valency lexicons for the Czech parsing system Syntis presented and an effective implementation is described that uses the syntactic information in the complex valency frames to resolve some of the standard parsing ambiguities, thereby improving the analysis results. We discuss the implementation in detail and provide evaluation showing improvements in parsing accuracy on the Brno Phrasal Treebank.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review two opposite thesis on the valency of deverbal nominais: preservation or reduction of arguments regarding the source predicate, and assess the criteria that support the thesis on valency reduction.
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to review two opposite thesis on the valency of deverbal nominais: preservation or reduction of arguments regarding the source predicate. We will be assessing the criteria that support the thesis on valency reduction, i.e.: i) the passive interpretation ascribed to the [N+de complement] structure (patient); ii) the formal opacity between valency complements and possessive modifiers; iii) the covert realization of some actants in specific contexts. The results of the analysis of a 278 nominalization sample are explained by means of the distinction between "potential valency" and "valency realization".
