DENSE COMPONENTS IN THE STRUCTURE OF WORDNET

摘要: This paper introduces a test-pattern named dense component for checking inconsistencies in the hierarchical structure of wordnet. Dense (viewed as substructure) points out cases regular polysemy context multiple inheritance. Definition is redefined ― instead lexical units there are used concepts (synsets). All components evaluated by expert lexicographer. Based on this experiment we give an overview which helps to detect. Special attention turned all different kind corrections made Authors find that greatest benefit use helping detect if justified or not. In-depth analysis has been performed Estonian Wordnet Version 66. Some comparative figures also given (EstWN) 67 and Princeton WordNet (PrWN) 3.1. Analysing hierarchies only hypernym-relations used.
