Corpus-based Semantic Relatedness for the Construction of Polish WordNet
نویسندگان
چکیده
The construction of a wordnet, a labour-intensive enterprise, can be significantly assisted by automatic grouping of lexical material and discovery of lexical semantic relations. The objective is to ensure high quality of automatically acquired results before they are presented for lexicographers’ approval. We discuss a software tool that suggests synset members using a measure of semantic relatedness with a given verb or adjective; this extends previous work on nominal synsets in Polish WordNet. Syntactically-motivated constraints are deployed on a large morphologically annotated corpus of Polish. Evaluation has been performed via the WordNet-Based Similarity Test and additionally supported by human raters. A lexicographer also manually assessed a suitable sample of suggestions. The results compare favourably with other known methods of acquiring semantic relations.

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 کاملPartial Measure of Semantic Relatedness Based on the Local Feature Selection
A corpus-based Measure of Semantic Relatedness can be calculated for every pair of words occurring in the corpus, but it can produce erroneous results for many word pairs due to accidental associations derived on the basis of several context features.We propose a novel idea of a partial measure that assigns relatedness values only to word pairs well enough supported by corpus data. Three simple...

In this paper, we describe our system submitted for the semantic textual similarity (STS) task at SemEval 2012. We implemented two approaches to calculate the degree of similarity between two sentences. First approach combines corpus-based semantic relatedness measure over the whole sentence with the knowledge-based semantic similarity scores obtained for the words falling under the same syntac...

The construction of suitable and scalable representations of semantic knowledge is a core challenge in Semantic Computing. Manually created resources such as WordNet have been shown to be useful for many AI and NLP tasks, but they are inherently restricted in their coverage and scalability. In addition, they have been challenged by simple distributional models on very large corpora, questioning...
متن کاملRandom Walk on WordNet to Measure Lexical Semantic Relatedness
The need to determine semantic relatedness or its inverse, semantic distance, between two lexically expressed concepts is a problem that pervades much of natural language processing such as document summarization, information extraction and retrieval, word sense disambiguation and the automatic correction of word errors in text. Standard ways of measuring similarity between two words on a thesa...
