Abstract

In this article we present a method for semi-automatically deriving lexico-conceptual ontologies in other languages, given a lexico-conceptual ontology for one language and bilingual mapping resources. Our method uses a logistic regression model to combine mappings proposed by a set of classifiers (up to 17 in our implementation). The method is formally described and evaluated by means of two implementations for semi-automatically building Spanish and Thai WordNets using Princeton's WordNet for English and conventional English-Spanish and English-Thai bilingual dictionaries.
