Title: | A Survey on Portuguese Lexical Knowledge Bases: Contents, Comparison and Combination | Authors: | Oliveira, Hugo Gonçalo | Keywords: | lexical knowledge bases; Portuguese; WordNet; redundancy; semantic similarity | Issue Date: | 2018 | Publisher: | MDPI | Serial title, monograph or event: | Information (Switzerland) | Volume: | 9 | Issue: | 2 | Abstract: | In the last decade, several lexical-semantic knowledge bases (LKBs) were developed for Portuguese, by different teams and following different approaches. Most of them are open and freely available for the community. Those LKBs are briefly analysed here, with a focus on size, structure, and overlapping contents. However, we go further and exploit all of the analysed LKBs in the creation of new LKBs, based on the redundant contents. Both original and redundancy-based LKBs are then compared, indirectly, based on the performance of automatic procedures that exploit them for solving four different semantic analysis tasks. In addition to conclusions on the performance of the original LKBs, results show that, instead of selecting a single LKB to use, it is generally worth combining the contents of all the open Portuguese LKBs, towards better results. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/107674 | ISSN: | 2078-2489 | DOI: | 10.3390/info9020034 | Rights: | openAccess |
