An RDF Representation of WordNet

Introduction


Currently I'm doing my Master in CS in the Department of Computer Science of the University of Chile. My thesis (will) consist in a RDF model of WordNet[1] and an "explorer" application over this model, using complex networks search algorithms. My advisor is Claudio Gutierrez.

We have defined the following steps to accomplish this work:

· Define a RDF Schema for WordNet

· Parsing the WordNet vocabulary to RDF, according to previous Schema

· Physical Management of Data

· Implementation of search algorithms

· Implementation of some graphical display of results (Optional but desirable)

[1] Actually there is a RDF representation of WordNet here but it is not finished.
