WordNet is a large lexical database of English, developed under the
|
||
|
|
direction of George A. Miller. Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs
|
||
|
|
are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms (synsets), each expressing
|
||
|
|
a distinct concept. Synsets are interlinked by means of conceptual-semantic
|
||
|
|
and lexical relations. The resulting network of meaningfully related
|
||
|
|
words and concepts can be navigated with the browser. WordNet is
|
||
|
|
also freely and publicly available for download. WordNet's structure
|
||
|
|
makes it a useful tool for computational linguistics and natural
|
||
|
|
language processing.
