Acquiring Ontological Relationships from Wikipedia Using RMRS
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the extraction of ontologies from biological text using a semantic representation derived from a robust parser. The use of a semantic representation avoids the problems that traditional pattern-based approaches have with complex syntactic constructions and long-distance dependencies. The discovery of taxonomic relationships is explored in a corpus consisting of 12,200 animal-related articles from the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia. The semantic representation used is Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics (RMRS). Initial experiments show good results in systematising extraction across a variety of hyponymic constructions.

Robust Ontology Acquisition from Machine-Readable Dictionaries
In this paper, we outline the development of a system that automatically constructs ontologies by extracting knowledge from dictionary definition sentences using Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics (RMRS), a semantic formalism that permits underspecification. We show that by combining deep and shallow parsing resources through the common formalism of RMRS, we can extract ontological relations in...
متن کاملGeographic information extraction using natural language processing in Wikipedia texts
Geographic information extracted from texts is a valuable source of location data about documents, which can be used to improve information retrieval and document indexing. Linked Data and digital gazetteers provide a large amount of data that can support the recognition of places mentioned in text. Natural Language Processing techniques, which have evolved significantly over the last years, of...

متن کاملExtending DBpedia with List Structures in Wikipedia Articles
Ontologies are the basis of the Semantic Web. Owing to the cost of their construction and maintenance, however, there is much interest in automating their construction. Wikipedia is considered a promising source of knowledge because of its own characteristics. DBpedia extracts a large amount of ontological information from Wikipedia. However, DBpedia focuses exclusively on infoboxes (i.e., tabl...
متن کاملAn Ontological User Modeling Approach Using Wikipedia’s Content for Cross-System Personalization
In this work, we are building a personalization engine for web pages across systems by using Wikipedia’s content as an ontological model. The model captures domain topics of any web page for user modeling purposes. Our system formulates a semantic user profile by analyzing the user’s browsing behavior, assuming that frequent browsing in a topical area implies a user’s interest in that area. We ...
