## Papers

1. **[Modelling the Morphology of Verbal Paradigms: A Case Study in the Tokenization of Turkish and Hebrew](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/aclbulk-2026-samo-modelling-morphology-verbal-paradigms-case/)** *(2026)* The paper asks whether sentence embeddings encode verb paradigms (active, passive, causative, causative-passive) and how tokenisation changes that.
2. **[Abstraction and Generalisation in Semantic Role Labels: PropBank, VerbNet or both?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/merlo-2009-abstraction-generalisation-semantic-role-labels/)** *(2009)* The paper compares two role inventories, PropBank (abstract labels A0 to A5, AA, and adjunct tags) and VerbNet (23 thematic roles, grouped into 7 classes for the comparison).
3. **[The Notion of Argument in Prepositional Phrase Attachment](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/cl-2006-merlo-notion-argument-prepositional-phrase-attachment/)** *(2006)* The paper treats PP attachment as a four-way problem: verb or noun site, crossed with argument or adjunct.
