Unsupervised Construction of a Multilingual WordNet from Parallel Corpora
Dimitar Kazakov, Ahmad Raza Shahid · 2009
This paper outlines an approach to the unsupervised construction from unannotated parallel corpora of a lexical semantic resource akin to WordNet. The paper also describes how this resource can be used to add lexical semantic tags to the text corpus at hand. Finally, we discuss the possibility to add some of the predicates typical for WordNet to its automatically constructed multilingual version, and the ways in which the success of this approach can be measured.
