چکیده

We introduce a novel approach to extract semantic relations (e.g., is-a and part-of relations) fromWikipedia articles. These relations are used to build up a large and up-todate thesaurus providing background knowledge for tasks such as determining semantic ontology mappings. Our automatic approach uses a comprehensive set of semantic patterns, finite state machines and NLP techniques to extract millions of relations between concepts. An evaluation for different domains shows the high quality and effectiveness of the proposed approach. We also illustrate the value of the newly found relations for improving existing ontology mappings.

Automatic Extraction of Semantic Relationships for WordNet by Means of Pattern Learning from Wikipedia

This paper describes an automatic approach to identify lexical patterns which represent semantic relationships between concepts, from an on-line encyclopedia. Next, these patterns can be applied to extend existing ontologies or semantic networks with new relations. The experiments have been performed with the Simple English Wikipedia and WordNet 1.7. A new algorithm has been devised for automat...

Acquiring Relational Patterns from Wikipedia: A Case Study

This paper proposes the automatic acquisition of binary relational patterns (i.e. portions of text expressing a relation between two entities) from Wikipedia. There are a few advantages behind the use of Wikipedia: (i) relations are represented in the DBpedia ontology, which provides a repository of concepts to be used as semantic variables within patterns; (ii) most of the DBpedia relations ap...
