The OntoLex-Lemon Model: development and applications
Publication Type:
Refereed Conference Meeting Proceeding
Abstract:
The lemon model has become the primary mechanism for the representation of lexical
data on the Semantic Web. The lemon model has been further developed in the context
of the W3C OntoLex community group, resulting in the new OntoLex-Lemon model,
recently published as a W3C report. In this paper, we describe the development and
future outlooks for this model as well as briefly review some of its current applications.
The recent evolution of lemon into OntoLex-Lemon, in the context of the community
group, led to improvements on the model that further extends its application domain from
formal applications such as question answering and semantic parsing to the representation
of general machine-readable dictionaries, including WordNet and digitized versions of
existing dictionaries.
We look at two use cases of the OntoLex-Lemon model in representing dictionaries and
in the WordNet Collaborative Interlingual Index. Finally, we consider the future of the
OntoLex-Lemon model, which we intend to continue to develop and have recently identi-
fied areas that increase the applicability and value of the model to more users.
