چکیده

Ontology learning aims to automatically extract ontological concepts and relationships from related text repositories and is expected to be more efficient and scalable than manual ontology development. One of the challenging issues associated with ontology learning is word sense disambiguation (WSD). Most WSD research employs resources such as WordNet, text corpora, or a hybrid approach. Motivated by the large volume and richness of user-generated content in social media, this research explores the role of social media in ontology learning. Specifically, our approach exploits social media as a dynamic context rich data source for WSD. This paper presents a method and preliminary evidence for the efficacy of our proposed method for WSD. The research is in progress toward conducting a formal evaluation of the social media based method for WSD, and plans to incorporate the WSD routine into an ontology learning system in the future.

Corpus-based Ontology Learning for Word Sense Disambiguation

This paper proposes to disambiguate word senses by corpus-based ontology learning. Our approach is a hybrid method. First, we apply the previously-secured dictionary information to select the correct senses of some ambiguous words with high precision, and then use the ontology to disambiguate the remaining ambiguous words. The mutual information between concepts in the ontology was calculated b...

Approaches To Word Sense Disambiguation

Removing ambiguous meaning of a word has been an extensive area of research in the field of computational linguistics. This paper presents a comprehensive study of the different dictionary approaches to Word Sense Disambiguation. Three approaches have been explored; graph based, ontology based and knowledge based. All the approaches use a corpus to evaluate words unlike in a machine learning ap...

An Ontology-Based Approach to Disambiguation of Semantic Relations

This paper describes experiments in using machine learning for relation disambiguation. There have been succesfuld experiments in combining machine learning and ontologies, or light-weight ontologies such as WordNet, for word sense disambiguation. However, what we are trying to do, is to disambiguate complex concepts consisting of two simpler concepts and the relation that holds between them. T...

A hybrid approach for extracting semantic relations from texts

We present an approach for extracting relations from texts that exploits linguistic and empirical strategies, by means of a pipeline method involving a parser, partof-speech tagger, named entity recognition system, pattern-based classification and word sense disambiguation models, and resources such as ontology, knowledge base and lexical databases. The relations extracted can be used for vario...

A knowledge-based approach to ontology learning and semantic annotation

The so-called Semantic Web vision will certainly benefit from automatic semantic annotation of words in documents. We present a method, called structural semantic interconnections (SSI), that creates structural specifications of the possible senses for each word in a context, and selects the best hypothesis according to a grammar G, describing relations between sense specifications. The method ...
