UNL Ontology
From UNL Wiki
The UNL Ontology, also known as the UW System, is a tree-like structure where UWs are interconnected through ontological relations: icl (is-a-kind-of), iof (is-an-instance-of), equ (is-equivalent-to) and pof (is-a-part-of). The UNL Ontology is claimed to improve the results of the enconversion process, as it can be used as a word sense disambiguation strategy; and the deconversion results, as it would compensate dictionary limitations.
For the time being, there are two different UNL ontologies:
- A list of UWs provided by the UNL Centre (here presented as a part of the UNL Knowledge Base)
- A list of UWs extracted out of the English WordNet2.1
