چکیده

This paper discusses some of the design criteria for a linguistic ontology that can be used to support multilingual and crosslinguistic searches and queries on the Internet. It focuses on integrating linguistic concepts and instances into an upper-level ontology, and shows that the result can be understood and analyzed as a feature (structure) system. It considers various types of linguistic structure ranging from segment types to grammatical properties and relations, and linguistic inventories including phoneme tables, inflectional paradigms, lexicons, and grammatical descriptions.

Ontology-Based Linguistic Annotation

We propose an ontology-based framework for linguistic annotation of written texts. We argue that linguistic annotation can be actually considered a special case of semantic annotation with regard to an ontology such as pursued within the context of the Semantic Web. Furthermore, we present CREAM, a semantic annotation framework, as well as its concrete implementation OntoMat and show how they c...

An Ontology-Based Multimedia Annotator for the Semantic Web of Language Engineering

The development of the Semantic Web, the next-generation Web, greatly relies on the availability of ontologies and powerful annotation tools. However, there is a lack of ontology-based annotation tools for linguistic multimedia data. Existing tools either lack ontology support or provide limited support for multimedia. To fill the gap, we present an ontology-based linguistic multimedia annotati...

Ontology-Based Interface Specifications for a NLP Pipeline Architecture

The high level of heterogeneity between linguistic annotations usually complicates the interoperability of processing modules within an NLP pipeline. In this paper, a framework for the interoperation of NLP components, based on a data-driven architecture, is presented. Here, ontologies of linguistic annotation are employed to provide a conceptual basis for the tag-set neutral processing of ling...

Strawson’s conception of analysis as a ‘connective linguistic analysis’ makes it possible for him to achieve an indefinitely large range of ideas or concepts among them are certain numbers of fundamental, general and pervasive concepts or concept-types which not only are pre-theoretical or ahistorical, but also together constitute a structural framework only within whichlogic, ontology and epis...

Formal Description of Resources for Ontology-based Semantic Annotation

Ontology-based semantic annotation aims at putting fragments of a text in correspondence with proper elements of an ontology such that the formal semantics encoded by the ontology can be exploited to represent text interpretation. In this paper, we formalize a resource for this goal. The main difficulty in achieving good semantic annotations consists in identifying fragments to be annotated and...
