Abstract

The aim of this paper is to describe an approach to semantic representation in the Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammars (LTAG)[1] paradigm. We show how to use all the informations contained in the two representation structures provided by the LTAG formalism in order to provide a dependency graph.
