The usages of postpositive attributive are complex and variable, especially three categories: present participle phrase, past participle phrase, and preposition phrase as postpositire attributive, which always bring the difficulties of automatic parsing. We summarize these categories and annotate the semantic information. Compared with dependency structure, feature structure, being recursive directed graph, enhances semantic information extraction in biomedical field. The annotation results show that recursive directed graph is more suitable to extract complex semantic relations for biomedical text mining.展开更多
