BabelNet: The Automatic Construction, Evaluation and Application of a Wide-Coverage Multilingual Semantic Network - scientific work about Wikipedia quality published in 2012, written by Roberto Navigli and Simone Paolo Ponzetto.

Overview

Autors present an automatic approach to the construction of BabelNet, a very large, wide-coverage multilingual semantic network. Key to their approach is the integration of lexicographic and encyclopedic knowledge from WordNet and Wikipedia. In addition, Machine Translation is applied to enrich the resource with lexical information for all languages. Authors first conduct in vitro experiments on new and existing gold-standard datasets to show the high quality and coverage of BabelNet. Authors then show that their lexical resource can be used successfully to perform both monolingual and cross-lingual Word Sense Disambiguation: thanks to its wide lexical coverage and novel semantic relations, authors are able to achieve state-of the-art results on three different SemEval evaluation tasks.
