WordNet is a large lexical database of English, developed under
|
|
the direction of George A. Miller. Nouns, verbs, adjectives and
|
|
adverbs are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms (synsets), each
|
|
expressing a distinct concept. Synsets are interlinked by means of
|
|
conceptual-semantic and lexical relations. The resulting network
|
|
of meaningfully related words and concepts can be navigated with
|
|
the browser. WordNet is also freely and publicly available for
|
|
download. WordNet's structure makes it a useful tool for computational
|
|
linguistics and natural language processing.
