Title Structuring a Domain Vocabulary in a General Knowledge Environment
Authors N. Ruimy
Abstract The study which is reported here aims at investigating the extent to which the conceptual and representational tools provided by a lexical model designed for the semantic representation of general language may suit the requirements of knowledge modelling in a domain-specific perspective. A general linguistic ontology and a set of semantic links, which allow classifying, describing and interconnecting word senses, play a central role in structuring and representing such knowledge. The health and medicine vocabulary has been taken as a case study for this investigation.
Keywords Lexical resource, ontology, semantic relations, semantic network, domain specific knowledge
