  • Thesaurus, Thesaural Relationships, Lexical Relations, Semantic Relations, Information Storage and Retrieval
    International Journal of Information Science and Management The Study of Thesaural Relationships from a Semantic Point of View J. Mehrad, Ph.D. F. Ahmadinasab, Ph.D. President of Regional Information Center Regional Information Center for Science and Technology, I. R. of Iran for Science and Technology, I. R. of Iran email: [email protected] Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Thesaurus is one, out of many, precious tool in information technology by which information specialists can optimize storage and retrieval of documents in scientific databases and on the web. In recent years, there has been a shift from thesaurus to ontology by downgrading thesaurus in favor of ontology. It is because thesaurus cannot meet the needs of information management because it cannot create a rich knowledge-based description of documents. It is claimed that the thesaural relationships are restricted and insufficient. The writers in this paper show that thesaural relationships are not inadequate and restricted as they are said to be but quite the opposite they cover all semantic relations and can increase the possibility of successful storage and retrieval of documents. This study shows that thesauri are semantically optimal and they cover all lexical relations; therefore, thesauri can continue as suitable tools for knowledge management. Keywords : Thesaurus, Thesaural Relationships, Lexical Relations, Semantic Relations, Information Storage and Retrieval. Introduction In the era of information explosion with the emergence of computers and internet and their important role in the storage and retrieval of information, every researcher has to do her/his scientific queries through scientific databases or the web. There are two common ways of query, one is free search which is done by keywords and the other is applying controlled vocabularies.

  • Introduction to Wordnet: an On-Line Lexical Database
    Introduction to WordNet: An On-line Lexical Database George A. Miller, Richard Beckwith, Christiane Fellbaum, Derek Gross, and Katherine Miller (Revised August 1993) WordNet is an on-line lexical reference system whose design is inspired by current psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. English nouns, verbs, and adjectives are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets. Standard alphabetical procedures for organizing lexical information put together words that are spelled alike and scatter words with similar or related meanings haphazardly through the list. Unfortunately, there is no obvious alternative, no other simple way for lexicographers to keep track of what has been done or for readers to ®nd the word they are looking for. But a frequent objection to this solution is that ®nding things on an alphabetical list can be tedious and time-consuming. Many people who would like to refer to a dictionary decide not to bother with it because ®nding the information would interrupt their work and break their train of thought. In this age of computers, however, there is an answer to that complaint. One obvious reason to resort to on-line dictionariesÐlexical databases that can be read by computersÐis that computers can search such alphabetical lists much faster than people can. A dictionary entry can be available as soon as the target word is selected or typed into the keyboard. Moreover, since dictionaries are printed from tapes that are read by computers, it is a relatively simple matter to convert those tapes into the appropriate kind of lexical database.

  • Semantic Typology and Efficient Communication
    To appear in the Annual Review of Linguistics. Semantic typology and efficient communication Charles Kemp∗1, Yang Xu2, and Terry Regier∗3 1Department of Psychology, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, 15213 2 Department of Computer Science, Cognitive Science Program, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario M5S 3G8, Canada 3 Department of Linguistics, Cognitive Science Program, University of California, Berkeley, CA, USA, 94707; email: [email protected] Abstract Cross-linguistic work on domains including kinship, color, folk biology, number, and spatial rela- tions has documented the different ways in which languages carve up the world into named categories. Although word meanings vary widely across languages, unrelated languages often have words with sim- ilar or identical meanings, and many logically possible meanings are never observed. We review work suggesting that this pattern of constrained variation is explained in part by the need for words to sup- port efficient communication. This work includes several recent studies that have formalized efficient communication in computational terms, and a larger set of studies, both classic and recent, that do not explicitly appeal to efficient communication but are nevertheless consistent with this notion. The effi- cient communication framework has implications for the relationship between language and culture and for theories of language change, and we draw out some of these connections. Keywords: lexicon, word meaning, categorization, culture, cognitive anthropology, information theory 1 INTRODUCTION The study of word meanings across languages has traditionally served as an arena for exploring the inter- play of language, culture, and cognition, and as a bridge between linguistics and neighboring disciplines such as anthropology and psychology.

  • The Reconstruction of Proto-Burmish: a Case Study in the Computational Implementation of the Comparative Method
    The reconstruction of proto-Burmish: a case study in the computational implementation of the comparative method The use of computational methods in comparative linguistics increases ever in popularity. Nonetheless, the fruits of such methods have so far been meagre when compared to the results the traditional comparative method. This paper explores a dataset of Burmish languages as a case study in improving the methodology of computational reconstruction. In particular are aim is not replace or modify the comparative method, but rather to implement the traditional method using computational tools. Our database comprises 400 concepts and their translational counterparts in a dozen Burmish langauges. Concepts are linked to the Concepticon (List et al. 2016), languages are linked to Glottolog. The primary data comes from Huáng et al. (1992.), as digitized by STEDT (Matisoff 2011), but we supplement this with other sources. We employ an iterative workflow combining the absolute rigor of a computer with the insightful intuitions of trained historical linguists. After providing all of the data with unambiguous phonetic interpretations, including the explicit encoding of underdetermined segments, the computer provides a preliminary alignment and reconstruction. These reconstructions are then adjusted with an eye to the relevant literature on proto-Burmish. The adjustments are made inside of the workflow system so that the algorithm and general methodology will be enhanced and made more robust.

It is being developed within the EU-funded BINDEX project. The aim of the system is to automatic ally index large quantities of abstracts of scientific and technical papers from several areas of engineering. Automatic indexing takes place using a controlled vocabulary provided in monolingual and bilingual thesauri. AUTINDEX produces for a given abstract a list of descriptors as well as a list of classification codes using these thesauri. It also allows for free indexing - indexing with an unrestricted vocabulary (delivering so called 'free descriptors´). These free descriptors are used to enhance and extend the thesauri. The bilingual AUTINDEX module indexes German abstracts in English and vice versa. considerably according to the user requirements. In this 1.

  • Towards a History of Concept List Compilation in Historical Linguistics
    Towards a history of concept list compilation in historical linguistics Johann-Mattis List Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, Jena A large proportion of lexical data of the world’s languages is presented in form of word lists in which a set of concepts was translated into the language varieties of a specific language family or geographic region. The basis of these word lists are concept lists, that is, questionnaires of comparative concepts (in the sense of Haspelmath 2010), which scholars used to elicit the respective translations in their field work. Thus, a concept list is in the end not much more than a bunch of elicitation glosses, often (but not necessarily) based on English as an elicitation language, and a typical concept list may look like the following one, quoted from Swadesh (1950: 161): I, thou, he, we, ye, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, hundred, all, animal, ashes, back, bad, bark, belly, big, […] this, tongue, tooth, tree, warm, water, what, where, white, who, wife, wind, woman, year, yellow. But scholars may also present their concept list in tabular form, adding additional information in additional columns, numbering and ranking items, providing exemplary translations into other languages, or marking specific items as obsolete. The compilation of concept lists for the purpose of historical language comparison has a long tradition in historical linguistics, dating back at least to the 18th century (Leibniz 1768, Pallas 1786), if not even earlier (see Kaplan 2017). But concept lists were not solely compiled for the purpose of historical language comparison.
