چکیده

In order to develop computer systems which can process the content of natural language texts it is necessary to capture the meaning of words in a way which is robust and domain independent.

We describe how a lexicon of such patterns can be created automatically from a hierarchical concept ontology and evaluated using a psychometric method. Finally we summarise our ndings in this research, giving the strengths and weaknesses of the advocated approach.

On the Role of Derivational Processes in the Formation of Non-Taxonomic Classes of Lexical Units in Russian
