چکیده

In this paper, we address the task of crosslingual semantic relatedness. We introduce a method that relies on the information extracted from Wikipedia, by exploiting the interlanguage links available between Wikipedia versions in multiple languages. Through experiments performed on several language pairs, we show that the method performs well, with a performance comparable to monolingual measures of relatedness.

Linking Domain-Specific Knowledge to Encyclopedic Knowledge: an Initial Approach to Linked Data

Linked Data creates a shared information space by publishing and connecting resources in the Semantic Web. However, the specification of semantic relationships between data sources is still a stumbling block. One solution is to enrich ontologies with multilingual and concept-oriented information. Usefully linking entities in the Semantic Web is thus facilitated by a semantic-oriented cross-ling...

CPRel: Semantic Relatedness Computation Using Wikipedia based Context Profiles

Semantic relatedness is a well known problem with its significance ranging from computational linguistics to Natural language Processing applications. Relatedness computation is restricted by the amount of common sense and background knowledge required to relate any two terms. This paper proposes a novel model of relatedness using context profile built on features extracted from encyclopedic kn...

Semantic Relatedness Using Salient Semantic Analysis

This paper introduces a novel method for measuring semantic relatedness using semantic profiles constructed from salient encyclopedic features. The model is built on the notion that the meaning of a word can be characterized by the salient concepts found in its immediate context. In addition to being computationally efficient, the new model has superior performance and remarkable consistency wh...

Measuring Semantic Relatedness using Mined Semantic Analysis

Mined Semantic Analysis (MSA) is a novel distributional semantics approach which employs data mining techniques. MSA embraces knowledge-driven analysis of natural languages. It uncovers implicit relations between concepts by mining for their associations in target encyclopedic corpora. MSA exploits not only target corpus content but also its knowledge graph (e.g., "See also" link graph of Wikip...
