An Approach For Word Sense Alignment For Romanian Language
Liviu Andrei Scutelnicu · Procedia Computer Science · 2022
The Romanian WordNet (RoWN) database is an impressive collection of Romanian nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs, which can be seen as a network of nodes where, words can be found in a certain context to have the same meaning, and in the mesh of that network are found the other words that in turn can become a network node for another word in a specific context. In this study we propose an approach for the problem of aligning the word senses form RoWordNet with those of the Thesaurus Dictionary of the Romanian Language in electronic format (eDTLR), by exploiting the collections of definitions and examples in the two linguistic thesauri, based on a statistical model, where four heuristics are proposed for solving this issue.
