description
  • Each EuroWordNet database is composed of the following:- The Inter-Lingual-Index, which is a list of records (ILI-records), in the form of synsets mainly taken from WordNet1.5 or manually created.- A top-ontology which consists of an ontology of 63 basic semantic classes based on fundamental distinctions.- A domain-ontology which consists of an ontology of subject-domains optionally assigned to ILI-records.- A selection of ILI-records, the so-called Base-Concepts, which play a major role in the different wordnets.- WordNet1.5 (91591 synsets; 168217 meanings; 126520 entry words) in EuroWordNet format.Number of synsets for M0018 = 48529 synsets

  • This paper studies the mapping of main Sources of Ontological Meaning onto the wordnets and, in particular, the current work in mapping the EuroWordNet Top Concept Ontology.
  • An explicit account for metaphors in wordnets as already called for by Chugur, Gonzalo, & Verdejo, (2002:39) would thus help to correct, evaluate and interpret the results of similarity measures.
  • The paper presents an experiment aiming at verifying whether the rich connectivity of two Italian Language Resources, ItalWordNet and CLIPS, can be exploited to support inference for Question Answering.
  • The methodology for the creation of primitive inferential rules from the ItalWordNet and CLIPS semantic relations is described.
  • We adopted this same methodology to discover significant inferential paths through the large set of semantic relations of ItalWordNet and through the rich connectivity (ranging from the argument structure to the qualia roles) of CLIPS.
