Abstract |
In this paper, we present an ontology-based methodology and architecture forthe comparison, assessment, combination (and, to some extent, also contrastiveevaluation) of the results of different linguistic tools. More specifically, wedescribe an experiment aiming at the improvement of the correctness of lemmatagging for Spanish. This improvement was achieved by means of thestandardisation and combination of the results of three different linguisticannotation tools (Bitexts DataLexica, Connexors FDG Parser and LACELLsPOS tagger), using (1) ontologies, (2) a set of lemma tagging correction rules,determined empirically during the experiment, and (3) W3C standard languages,such as XML, RDF(S) and OWL. As we show in the results of the experiment, theinteroperation of these tools by means of ontologies and the correction rulesapplied in the experiment improved significantly the quality of the resultinglemma tagging (when compared to the separate lemma tagging performed by each ofthe tools that we made interoperate). |
