Automatically Populating Acception Lexical Database through Bilingual Dictionaries and Conceptual Vectors PAPILLON 2002 Mathieu Lafourcade LIRMM - France
2
Overwiew & Objectives Lexical soup what ? Bilingual dic & Conceptual vectors which heuristics ? for what ? linking decision and quality assessment
3
Conceptual vectors vector space An idea Concept combination a vector Idea space = vector space A concept = an idea = a vector V with augmentation: V + neighboorhood Meaning space = vector space + {v}*
4
Conceptual vectors Thesaurus H : thesaurus hierarchy K concepts Thesaurus Larousse = 873 concepts V(C i ) : a j = 1/ (2 ** D um (H, i, j)) 1/41 1/16 1/64 264
5
Conceptual vectors Concept c4:peace peace hiérarchical relations conflict relations The world, manhood society
6
Conceptual vectors Term peace c4:peace
7
Angular distance D A (x, y) = angle (x, y) 0 D A (x, y) if 0 then x & y colinear same idea if /2 then nothing in common if then D A (x, -x) with -x anti-idea of x x y x
8
Angular distance D A (x, y) = acos(sim(x,y)) D A (x, y) = acos(x.y/|x||y|)) D A (x, x) = 0 D A (x, y) = D A (y, x) D A (x, y) + D A (y, z) D A (x, z) D A (0, 0) = 0 and D A (x, 0) = /2 by definition D A ( x, y) = D A (x, y) with 0 D A ( x, y) = - D A (x, y) with < 0 D A (x+x, x+y) = D A (x, x+y) D A (x, y)
9
Thematic distance Examples D A (tit, tit) = 0 D A (tit, passerine) = 0.4 D A (tit, bird) = 0.7 D A (tit, train) = 1.14 D A (tit, insect) = 0.62 tit = insectivorous passerine bird …
