PAPEL: a dictionary-based lexical ontology for Portuguese
Authors
Abstract
This paper describes a project aimed at creating a lexicalontology extracted (semi) automatically from a large Portuguese general
dictionary. Although using machine readable dictionaries to extract semantic
information is not new, we believe this is the first attempt for
the Portuguese language. The paper describes a (to be) freely available
resource, dubbed PAPEL, explaining the process used and the tools developed,
and illustrating it with one specific relation: Causation.
