Abstract
Valency lexicon of Czech verbs has been intensively worked on for more than a year, and now we have at our disposal a detailed
description of valency frames of several hundreds verbs. Presently, the challenge naturally arises, to use the existing lexicon
for capturing valency of other word classes. In this paper, we focus on valency of nouns derived from verbs. We propose an
algorithm for automatic prediction of valency frames of these nouns, and we test it on a sample of data.
The research reported on in this paper has been carried out under the projects GAČR 405/96/K214 and MŠMT LN00A063.
