Abstract: In this paper, we describe the Argument Selection and Coercion task, currently in development for the SemEval-2 evaluation exercise scheduled for 2010. This task involves characterizing the type of compositional operation that exists between a predicate and the arguments it selects. Specifically, the goal is to identify whether the type that a verb selects is satisfied directly by the argument, or whether the argument must change type to satisfy the verb typing. We discuss the problem in detail and describe the data preparation for the task.
