Acquisition of Hypernymy-Hyponymy Relation between Nouns for WordNet Building

摘要

Automatic extraction of hypernym-hyponym pairs has been done in many researches. But none is described as an automatic method to incorporate the result to Word Net or on Word Net building. This paper proposes a method to automatically acquire hypernym-hyponym pairs for Word Net building by utilizing a monolingual dictionary and Lesk Word Sense Disambiguation or Lesk WSD to deliver tagged pairs. This method is implemented on an Indonesian monolingual dictionary and produces 70% accuracy.
