Title Learning to Mine Definitions from Slovene Structured and Unstructured Knowledge-Rich Resources
Authors Darja Fišer, Senja Pollak and Špela Vintar
Abstract The paper presents an innovative approach to extract Slovene definitioncandidates from domain-specific corpora using morphosyntactic patterns,automatic terminology recognition and semantic tagging with wordnet senses.First, a classification model was trained on examples from Slovene Wikipediawhich was then used to find well-formed definitions among the extractedcandidates. The results of the experiment are encouraging, with accuracyranging from 67% to 71%. The paper also addresses some drawbacks of theapproach and suggests ways to overcome them in future work.
