Authors propose a method to automatically align [[WordNet]] synsets and [[Wikipedia]] articles to obtain a sense inventory of higher coverage and quality. For each WordNet synset, authors first extract a set of Wikipedia articles as alignment candidates; in a second step, authors determine which article (if any) is a valid alignment, i.e. is about the same sense or concept. In this paper, authors go significantly beyond state-of-the-art word overlap approaches, and apply a threshold-based Personalized PageRank method for the disambiguation step. Authors show that WordNet synsets can be aligned to Wikipedia articles with a performance of up to 0.78 F1-Measure based on a comprehensive, well-balanced reference dataset consisting of 1,815 manually annotated sense alignment candidates. The fully-aligned resource as well as the reference dataset is publicly available.

The People's Web Meets Linguistic Knowledge: Automatic Sense Alignment of Wikipedia and Wordnet - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2011, written by Elisabeth Niemann and Iryna Gurevych.

Overview

Authors propose a method to automatically align WordNet synsets and Wikipedia articles to obtain a sense inventory of higher coverage and quality. For each WordNet synset, authors first extract a set of Wikipedia articles as alignment candidates; in a second step, authors determine which article (if any) is a valid alignment, i.e. is about the same sense or concept. In this paper, authors go significantly beyond state-of-the-art word overlap approaches, and apply a threshold-based Personalized PageRank method for the disambiguation step. Authors show that WordNet synsets can be aligned to Wikipedia articles with a performance of up to 0.78 F1-Measure based on a comprehensive, well-balanced reference dataset consisting of 1,815 manually annotated sense alignment candidates. The fully-aligned resource as well as the reference dataset is publicly available.
