Model for Lexical Knowledge Base

by Michio Isoda Hideo, Hideo Also
"... This paper describes a model for a lexical knowledge base (LKB). An LKB is a knowledge base management system (KBMS) which stores various kinds of dictionary knowledge in a uniform framework and provides multiple viewpoints to the stored knowledge. ..."

An Iterative Construction Approach for Lexical Knowledge Bases

by Caroline Barriere, Fred Popowich , 1999
"... The task of natural language analysis requires background knowledge in order to understand the meaning of text. Building a knowledge base of this background knowledge necessitates the acquisition of information from different sources, the most practical one being electronic texts that are so abunda ..."

of the spiral, and develop design principles for building a dynamic lexical knowledge base (LKB), concentrating on the LKB's content, representation formalism and structure. A dynamic LKB must be modular, with easy access and comparison mechanisms for evaluating new information, and with modification

International Workshop in Natural Language and in Lexical Knowledge Bases

by Building Up The, Pablo Gamallo Otero, Michel Chambreuil
"... In this paper, we will work on some problematic verbal phrases in order to shed light on the manner in which "the co-specification device" takes into account different sources of information (syntactic, lexical and other sources) to generate a composite meaning. To describe the particul ..."

A project for the construction of an Italian Lexical Knowledge Base in the framework of WordNet

by Bernardo Magnini, Fabio Ciravegna, Emanuele Pianta - SUN Microsystems , 1994
"... This paper describes a project that aims to develop a large-size Lexical Knowledge Base (LKB) for the Italian language. The project began because presently there is no LKB available for Italian, on an electronic support, that can be used both for natural language processing and lexicography applicat ..."

Building a Lexical Knowledge-Base of Near-Synonym Differences

by Diana Zaiu Inkpen, Graeme Hirst - In Proceedings of the Workshop on WordNet and Other Lexical Resources: Applications, Extensions and Customizations , 2001
"... In machine translation and natural language generation, making a poor choice from a set of near-synonyms can be imprecise or awkward, or convey unwanted implications. Our goal is to automatically derive a lexical knowledge-base from a dictionary of near-synonym discriminations. We do this by classif ..."

Oriya Multiword Chunking using Lexical knowledge base of verbs

by Manoj Kumar Jena, S Mohanty, North Orissa, Rakesh Balabantaray
"... The multiword chunking is otherwise thought of as the shallow parsing technique which identifies the multiword chunks and their interdependencies. The paper presents the proposed solution to the problem. Here we have designed the model of the proposed syntactic processor which uses lexical knowledge ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
knowledge base of verbs for identifying intra chunk boundaries and finally forming the inter dependencies graph. The lexical knowledge base of verbs is used as there is basic assumption that verbs determine the semantics of a sentence and its surface realization is based on this fact. Verbs impose syntactic

Acquiring and Representing Semantic Information in a Lexical Knowledge Base

by Nicoletta Calzolari - PROCEEDINGS OF THE ACL SIGLEX WORKSHOP ON LEXICAL SEMANTICS AND KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION , 1992
"... The paper focuses on the description of the approach, taken within the ESPRIT BRA project ACQUILEX, towards: i) acquisition of semantic information from several machine- readable dictionaries (in four languages), and ii) its representation in a common Lexical Knowledge Base. Knowledge extraction is ..."

The Representation of Group Denoting Nouns in a Lexical Knowledge Base.

by Ann Copestake , 1995
"... In this paper we consider the representation of group denoting nouns, and the relationship between groups and their individual members, within the general framework of a computational treatment of lexical semantics which uses a typed unication based formalism to create a highly structured lexicon. W ..."

-motivated, but comprehensive and computationally tractable, multilingual lexical knowledge base (LKB) usable for natural language processing, lexicography and other applications. One of the goals of the ACQUILEX project was to demonstrate the feasibility of building an LKB by acquiring a substantial portion of the information
