A Fuzzy Ontology Extension of WordNet and EuroWordnet for Specialized Knowledge
نویسندگان
چکیده
The integration of linguistic and domain-oriented knowledge resources is a common task in many current projects with NLP objectives. WordNet and EuroWordNet offer large lexical resources for such purposes. Nevertheless, their exploitation in conjunction with specialized knowledge is still a non-trivial task. We propose to use fuzzy ontologies, which combine Fuzzy Logic theory and Description Logics, to represent the imprecise notions of prototypicality and representativeness with regards to synset membership, hyponymy and equivalence. We show that this approach is particularly appropriate to combine WordNet with other specific terminological resources, such as the environmental knowledge base EcoLexicon.

Query Architecture Expansion in Web Using Fuzzy Multi Domain Ontology
Due to the increasing web, there are many challenges to establish a general framework for data mining and retrieving structured data from the Web. Creating an ontology is a step towards solving this problem. The ontology raises the main entity and the concept of any data in data mining. In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...

WordNet divides adjectives in descriptives and relationals basically and they are represented in an enumerative way. The category was not introduced in EuroWordNet and Spanish adjectives in the SpanishWordNet are the translation of the English synsets. This paper describes a proposal of organizing and incorporating adjectives into the SpanishWordNet in terms of representing its polymorphic beha...

In this paper we describe the methodology and the first steps for the creation of WNTERM (from WordNet and Terminology), a specialized lexicon produced from the merger of the EuroWordNet-based Multilingual Central Repository (MCR) and the Basic Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Science and Technology (BDST). As an example, the ecology domain has been used. The final result is a multilingual (Basque a...

There is an increasing interest in linguistic ontologies (e.g. WordNet) for a variety of content-based tasks, including conceptual indexing, word sense disambiguation and cross-language information retrieval. A relevant contribution in this direction is represented by linguistic ontologies with domain specific coverage, which are a crucial topic for the development of concrete application syste...
