This volume contains chapters that paint the current landscape of the multiword expressions (MWE) representation in lexical resources, in view of their robust identification and computational processing. Both large-size general lexica and smaller MWE-centred ones are included, with special focus on the representation decisions and mechanisms that facilitate their usage in Natural Language Processing tasks. The presentations go beyond the morpho-syntactic description of MWEs, into their semantics.
One challenge in representing MWEs in lexical resources is ensuring that the variability along with extra features required by the different types of MWEs can be captured efficiently. In this respect, recommendations for representing MWEs in mono- and multilingual computational lexicons have been proposed; these focus mainly on the syntactic and semantic properties of support verbs and noun compounds and their proper encoding thereof.

Voula Giouli is a research associate at the Institute for Language and Speech Processing in Athens of ATHENA Research Centre in Athens, Greece. She holds a MSc in Speech and Language Processing from the University of Edinburgh, and a PhD in Computational Linguistics from the University of Athens. She has been involved in the development of downstream Natural Language Processing resources (annotated corpora, computational lexica) and tools for the Greek language mainly in the area of Information Extraction, Machine Translation, Sentiment Analysis, and Digital Humanities. Her research focuses on the lexicon, syntax, semantics and their interfaces.
Verginica Barbu Mititelu is a senior researcher in the Natural Language Processing group of the Romanian Academy Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence. She performed her Master studies at and received her PhD in Philology in 2010 from the University of Bucharest. She has constantly been preoccupied with and involved in the development of language resources, especially for Romanian, applying up-to-date annotation schemas and adjusting them to the characteristics of the language under study. She has also been concerned with standardizing the resources developed, especially using Linked Data principles of representation, and with the registration of their metadata in international data repositories.
