Due to the large amount of available patent data, it is no longer feasible for industry actors to manually create their own terminology lists and ontologies. Furthermore, domain specific thesauruses are rarely accessible to the research community. In this paper we present extraction of hyponymy lexical relations conducted on patent text using lexico-syntactic patterns. We explore the lexico-syn...

We describe the construction of GLASS, a newly sense-annotated version of the German lexical substitution data set used at the GERMEVAL 2015: LEXSUB shared task. Using the two annotation layers, we conduct the first known empirical study of the relationship between manually applied word senses and lexical substitutions. We find that synonymy and hypernymy/hyponymy are the only semantic relation...

Semantic space models represent the meaning of a word as a vector in high-dimensional space. They offer a framework in which the meaning representation of a word can be computed from its context, but the question remains how they support inferences. While there has been some work on paraphrase-based inferences in semantic space, it is not clear how semantic space models would support inferences...

Our research goal is to generate new assertions suitable for introduction to the Japanese part of the ConceptNet common sense knowledge ontology. In this paper we present a method for extracting IsA assertions (hyponymy relations), AtLocation assertions (informing of the location of an object or place), LocatedNear assertions (informing of neighboring locations) and CreatedBy assertions (inform...

In this paper we present a method for extracting IsA assertions (hyponymy relations), AtLocation assertions (informing of the location of an object or place), LocatedNear assertions (informing of neighboring locations), CreatedBy assertions (informing of the creator of an object) and MemberOf assertions (informing of group membership) automatically from Japanese Wikipedia XML dump files. These ...

We present a collection of association norms for 246 German depictable compound nouns and their constituents, comprising 58,652 association tokens distributed over 26,004 stimulus-associate pair types. Analyses of the data revealed that participants mainly provided noun associates, followed by adjective and verb associates. In corpus analyses, co-occurrence values for compounds and their associ...

The goal of recent research projects on integrating Web databases has been to enable uniform access to the large amount of data behind query interfaces. Among the tasks addressed are: source discovery, query interface extraction, schema matching, etc. There are also a number of tasks that are commonly ignored or assumed to be apriori solved either manually or by some oracle. These tasks include...

This study aims to determine the lexical aspects contained in four song lyrics album "Selamat Ulang Tahun" by Nadin Amizah. used descriptive qualitative method. The data sources for this research are Amizah which consists of songs “Beranjak Dewasa”, “Sorak Sorai”, “Bertaut”, and “Taruh”. words, phrases, clauses, sentences from Data collection techniques documentation note-taking techniques. ana...

This paper focuses on mining the hyponymy (or is-a) relation from large-scale, open-domain web documents. A nonlinear probabilistic model is exploited to model the correlation between sentences in the aggregation of pattern matching results. Based on the model, we design a set of evidence combination and propagation algorithms. These significantly improve the result quality of existing approach...
