OpenWordNet-PT: An Open Brazilian Wordnet for Reasoning
Valeria de Paiva, Alexandre Rademaker, Gerard de Melo · International Conference on Computational Linguistics · 2012
Brazilian Portuguese needs a Wordnet that is open access, downloadable and changeable, so that it can be improved by the community interested in using it for knowledge representation and automated deduction. This kind of resource is also very valuable to linguists and computer scientists interested in extracting and representing knowledge obtained from texts. We discuss briefly the reasons for a Brazilian Portuguese Wordnet and the process we used to get a preliminary version of such a resource. Then we discuss possible steps to improving our preliminary version.1
