A Study on Linking Wikipedia Categories to Wordnet Synsets using Text Similarity
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper studies the application of text similarity methods to disambiguate ambiguous links between WordNet nouns and Wikipedia categories. The methods range from word overlap between glosses, random projections, WordNetbased similarity, and a full-fledged textual entailment system. Both unsupervised and supervised combinations have been tried. The goldstandard with disambiguated links is publicly available. The results range from 64.7% for the first sense heuristic, 68% for an unsupervised combination, and up to 77.74% for a supervised combination.

Automatic Construction of Persian ICT WordNet using Princeton WordNet
WordNet is a large lexical database of English language, in which, nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms (synsets). Each synset expresses a distinct concept. Synsets are interlinked by both semantic and lexical relations. WordNet is essentially used for word sense disambiguation, information retrieval, and text translation. In this paper, we propose s...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Taxonomy Mapping for Restructuring and Integrating Wikipedia
We present a knowledge-rich methodology for disambiguating Wikipedia categories with WordNet synsets and using this semantic information to restructure a taxonomy automatically generated from the Wikipedia system of categories. We evaluate against a manual gold standard and show that both category disambiguation and taxonomy restructuring perform with high accuracy. Besides, we assess these met...
متن کاملLinking Dutch Wikipedia Categories to EuroWordNet
Wikipedia provides category information for a large number of named entities but the category structure of Wikipedia is associative, and not always suitable for linguistic applications. For this reason, a merger of Wikipedia andWordNet has been proposed. In this paper, we address the word sense disambiguation problem that needs to be solved when linking Dutch Wikipedia categories to polysemous ...
متن کاملDesiderata For Tagging With WordNet Synsets Or MCCA Categories
Minnesota Contextual Content Analysis (MCCA) is a technique for characterizing the concepts and themes occurring in text (sentences, paragraphs, interview transcripts, books). MCCA tags each word with a category and examines the distribution of categories against norms representing general usage of categories. MCCA also scores texts in terms of social contexts that are similar to different func...
متن کاملMapping WordNet synsets to Wikipedia articles
Lexical knowledge bases (LKBs), such as WordNet, have been shown to be useful for a range of language processing tasks. Extending these resources is an expensive and time-consuming process. This paper describes an approach to address this problem by automatically generating a mapping from WordNet synsets to Wikipedia articles. A sample of synsets has been manually annotated with article matches...
