TaxoLearn

TaxoLearn is a graph-based approach aimed at learning a lexical taxonomy automatically starting from a domain corpus and the Web. The system is based on Word-Class Lattices and a taxonomy learning algorithm developed by Roberto Navigli, Paola Velardi and Stefano Faralli.

Clear here for an extended version of this work, called OntoLearn Reloaded.

Dataset

We are releasing the Artificial Intelligence taxonomy (extracted from the IJCAI 2009 conference proceedings). The taxonomy is distributed in two formats:

We are also releasing the glosses extracted from the domain corpus and harvested from the web during the taxonomy learning phase:
