Bootstrapping semantics from text is one of the greatest challenges in natural language learning. We first define a word similarity measure based on the distributional pattern of ...
This paper presents the results of using Roget's International Thesaurus as the taxonomy in a semantic similarity measurement task. Four similarity metrics were taken from th...
Roget’s Thesaurus has not been sufficiently appreciated in Natural Language Processing. We show that Roget's and WordNet are birds of a feather. In a few typical tests, we ...
Roget’s Thesaurus is a lexical resource which groups terms by semantic relatedness. It is Roget’s shortcoming that the relations are ambiguous, in that it does not name them; i...
Roget's Thesaurus and WordNet are very widely used lexical reference works. We describe an automatic mapping procedure that effectively produces French translations of the te...
