OntoWiktionary

Christian M. Meyer, Iryna Gurevych · IGI Global eBooks · 2012

For constructing their ontology OntoWiktionary, the authors present a two-step approach that involves (1) harvesting structured knowledge from Wiktionary and (2) ontologizing this knowledge (i.e., the formation of ontological concepts and relationships from the harvested knowledge). They evaluate their approach based on human judgments and find their new ontology to be of overall good quality. To encourage further research in this field, the authors make the final OntoWiktionary publicly available and suggest integrating this novel resource with the linked data cloud as well as other existing ontology projects.
