Arabic WordNet. Current State and Future Extensions

Abstract

Abstract. We report on the current status of the Arabic WordNet project and in particular on the contents of the database, the lexicographer and user interfaces, the Arabic WordNet browser, linking to the SUMO ontology, the Arabic word spotter, and techniques for semiautomatically extending Arabic WordNet. The central focus of the presentation is on the semiautomatic extension of Arabic WordNet using lexical and morphological rules.
