Use of Syntactic and Semantic Filters for Lexical Acquisition: Using WordNet to Increase Precision

چکیده

This paper describes an approach to automatic extraction of verb meanings from machine-readable resources for the construction of large-scale knowledge sources. We describe semantic lters designed to reduce the number of incorrect assignments made by a purely syntactic technique. We report on our results of disambiguating the verbs in the semantic lters by adding WordNet sense annotations. 1 We then show the results of our classiication on unknown words and we evaluate these results.

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...

Acquisition Of Semantic Lexicons: Using Word Sense Disambiguation To Improve Precision

This paper addresses the problem of large-scale acquisition of computational-semantic lexicons from machine-readable resources. We describe semantic filters designed to reduce the number of incorrect assignments (i.e., improve precision) made by a purely syntactic technique. We demonstrate that it is possible to use these filters to build broad-coverage lexicons with minimal effort, at a depth ...

In this paper, we tried to propose a method for applying the "meaning" of the search system, But the problem ...
