Abstract

WordNet is a semantic lexicon for the English language and many countries have been developing their own WordNet. Almost, all of the WordNets are manually built and unfortunately these WordNets are not verified and are being used in many knowledge-based applications. In this paper we aimed at the clustering based verification of a manually built lexical taxonomy WordNet, namely the Korean WordNet, U-WIN. For this purpose two kinds of clustering methods are used: K-Means approach and ICA based approach. As a result the ICA based approach gives better result, and it shows very effective characteristic for extracting features.
