A Web-based Taxonomy Learning Algorithm

Sailong He · Journal of Ningbo University · 2008

Extraction of domain-specific taxonomies has been increasingly needed in ontology engineering.In this paper,a novel learning algorithm of taxonomy is presented.It uses the iterative methods to extract linguistic patterns,by which the taxonomic components are obtained.The improved mutual information method is adopted for evaluating and filtering the results.In the end,the performance of the taxonomy learning algorithm is assessed by the experiment and shows the good inter-disciplinary applications and improvement in terms of accuracy and recall-rate.
