A Step toward Semantic Indexing of an Encyclopedic Corpus
Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2000)
Abstract
This paper investigates a method for extracting and acquiring knowledge from Linguistic resources. In particular, we propose an NLP based architecture for building a semantic network out of an XML on line encyclopedic corpus. The general application underlying this work is a question-answering system on proper nouns within an encyclopedia.
