On the use of WordNet for semantic interoperability: towards "cognitive computing"
نویسنده
چکیده
WordNet is an electronic lexical database structured around psychological and linguistic principles. As such, it should play a part in any e ort to integrate cognitive factors into knowledge based systems. Yet, some of its basic assumptions have been attacked, and the suggestion made that a major restructuring would make it more cognitively transparent. We investigate these allegations from a psycholinguistic perspective and conclude that WordNet is in fact rigorous in terms of the cognitive principles it embodies. What is lacking is a methodology for translating the explicit and implicit knowledge in WordNet into a usable, formal ontologies. We show some ways in which WordNet should be extended to facilitate this process. We agree that WordNet is not in itself ready for use as a formal ontology, but we argue that it is an invaluable tool for describing the conceptualized structure of our world, and should be used as a fundamental resource.

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...

Due to the increasing web, there are many challenges to establish a general framework for data mining and retrieving structured data from the Web. Creating an ontology is a step towards solving this problem. The ontology raises the main entity and the concept of any data in data mining. In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...

متن کاملTowards constructing an Integrative, Multi-Level Model for Cognition: The Function of Semantic Networks
Integrated approaches try to connect different constructs in different theories and reinterpret them using a common conceptual framework. In this research, using the concept of processing levels, an integrated, three-level model of the cognitive systems has been proposed and evaluated. Processing levels are divided into three categories of Feature-Oriented, Semantic and Conceptual Level based o...
