This paper presents a new graph-based approach that induces synsets using synonymy
dictionaries and word embeddings. First, we build a weighted graph of synonyms extracted …

Abstract The Princeton WordNet for the English language has been used worldwide in NLP
projects for many years. With the OMW initiative, wordnets for different languages of the …

Research on clustering algorithms in synonymy graphs of a single language yields
promising results, however, this idea is not yet explored in a multilingual setting …

We present a detailed theoretical and computational analysis of the Watset meta-algorithm
for fuzzy graph clustering, which has been found to be widely applicable in a variety of …

In this paper we present a procedure for the restoration of diacritics in Serbian texts written
using the degraded Latin alphabet. The procedure relies on the comprehensive lexical …

This article explores the principles of synsets in the RuWordNet thesaurus and synonyms in
the classical dictionaries of Russian synonyms (N= 10) to identify discrepancies and …

Graph-based synset induction methods, such as MaxMax and Watset, induce synsets by
performing a global clustering of a synonymy graph. However, such methods are sensitive to …

In this paper, we show how distributionally-induced semantic classes can be helpful for
extracting hypernyms. We present methods for inducing sense-aware semantic classes …

The paper reviews the existing Russian-language thesauri in digital form and methods of
their automatic construction and application. The authors analyzed the main characteristics …

We present an algorithm for predicting translation equivalents between two languages,
based on the corresponding WordNets. The assumption is that all synsets of one of the …
