| Abstract | Lexical resources are basic components of many text processing system devotedto information extraction, question answering or dialogue. In paste years manyresources have been developed such as FrameNet and WordNet. FrameNet describesprototypical situations (i.e. Frames) while WordNet defines lexical meaning(senses) for the majority of English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs. Amajor difference between FrameNet and WordNet refers to their coverage. Due ofthis lack of coverage, in recent years some approaches have been studied tomake a bridge between this two resources, so a resource is used to extend thecoverage of the other one. The nature of these approaches leave from supervisedto supervised methods. The major problem is that there is not a standard inevaluation of the mapping. Each different work have tested own approach with acustom gold standard. This work give an extensive evaluation of the modelproposed in (De Cao et al., 2008) using gold standard proposed in other works.Moreover this work give an empirical comparison between other availableresources. As outcome of this work we also release the full mapping resourcemade according to the model proposed in (De Cao et al., 2008). |
