Cross-checking WordNet and SUMO Using Meronymy
Proceedings of the Eleventh International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2018)
Abstract
We report on the practical application of a black-box testing methodology for the validation of the knowledge encoded in WordNet, SUMO and their mapping by using automated theorem provers. Our proposal is based on the part-whole information provided by WordNet, out of which we automatically create a large set of tests. Our experimental results confirm that the proposed system enables the validation of some pieces of information and also the detection of missing information or inconsistencies among these resources.
