Exploiting the Arabic Wikipedia for Semi-Automatic Construction of a Lexical Ontology - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2013, written by Mohamed Mahdi Boudabous, Lamia Hadrich Belguith and Fatiha Sadat.

Overview

In this paper, authors propose a hybrid numerical/linguistic method to build a lexical ontology for the Arabic language. This method is based on the Arabic Wikipedia. It consists of two phases: analysing the description section in order to build core ontology and then using the physical structure of Wikipedia articles info-boxes, category pages and redirect links and their contents for enriching the core ontology. The building phase of the core ontology is implemented via the TBAO system. The obtained core ontology contains more than 200,000 concepts.
