@inproceedings{ponzetto2007deriving, abstract = {We take the category system inWikipedia as a conceptual network. We label the semantic relations between categories using methods based on connectivity in the network and lexicosyntactic matching. As a result we are able to derive a large scale taxonomy containing a large amount of subsumption, i.e. isa, relations. We evaluate the quality of the created resource by comparing it with ResearchCyc, one of the largest manually annotated ontologies, as well as computing semantic similarity between words in benchmarking datasets.}, author = {Ponzetto, Simone Paolo and Strube, Michael}, booktitle = {AAAI}, crossref = {conf/aaai/2007}, date = {2007-09-05}, file = {ponzetto2007deriving.pdf:ponzetto2007deriving.pdf:PDF}, groups = {public}, interhash = {bc3a144ed8d3f2941359ae97a5b93194}, intrahash = {5db72406c5681facd7ad47895937d86e}, isbn = {978-1-57735-323-2}, pages = {1440-1445}, publisher = {AAAI Press}, timestamp = {2010-03-30 16:07:36}, title = {Deriving a Large-Scale Taxonomy from Wikipedia.}, url = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/conf/aaai/aaai2007.html#PonzettoS07}, username = {dbenz}, year = 2007 } @inproceedings{strube2006wikirelate, abstract = {Wikipedia provides a knowledge base for computing word relatedness in a more structured fashion than a search engine and with more coverage than WordNet. In this work we present experiments on using Wikipedia for computing semantic relatedness and compare it to WordNet on various benchmarking datasets. Existing relatedness measures perform better using Wikipedia than a baseline given by Google counts, and we show that Wikipedia outperforms WordNet when applied to the largest available dataset designed for that purpose. The best results on this dataset are obtained by integrating Google, WordNet and Wikipedia based measures. We also show that including Wikipedia improves the performance of an NLP application processing naturally occurring texts.}, author = {Strube, Michael and Ponzetto, Simone Paolo}, booktitle = {AAAI}, crossref = {conf/aaai/2006}, file = {strube2006wikirelate.pdf:strube2006wikirelate.pdf:PDF}, groups = {public}, interhash = {a09d5123ab9ab8cb00b8df6f0a7f5c81}, intrahash = {9216a46b593c3319aa23d13ca8373beb}, publisher = {AAAI Press}, timestamp = {2011-02-02 14:02:02}, title = {WikiRelate!
