Wei Zhou, Yuncheng Du, Hongwei Wang, Xueqiang Lv · 2011

At present, how to use computer technology to automatically identify the semantic relations between terms, such as equivalence relationship, hierarchical relationship and associative relationship, is a key part of automatically building a thesauri, also a difficulty. In this paper, several common methods to identify the concept hierarchical relationship were described: the identification method based on co-occurrence analysis, the distribution of similarity calculation method and the method based on syntactic pattern matching, proposed a combination method of co-occurrence statistics and distribution of similarity calculation to identify the concept hierarchical relationships between words, and proved by experiments that the method is feasible and effective.
