BabelDomains: Large-Scale Domain Labeling of Lexical Resources

José Camacho-Collados, Roberto Navigli · 2017

In this paper we present BabelDomains, a unified resource which provides lexical items with information about domains of knowledge.We propose an automatic method that uses knowledge from various lexical resources, exploiting both distributional and graph-based clues, to accurately propagate domain information.We evaluate our methodology intrinsically on two lexical resources (WordNet and Ba-belNet), achieving a precision over 80% in both cases.Finally, we show the potential of BabelDomains in a supervised learning setting, clustering training data by domain for hypernym discovery.
