Abstract

Within the EuroWordNet projects the national wordnets were interlinked with a interlingual index, ILI. In the subsequent Balkanet project, mostly pragmatic decisions stood as the reason for choosing the English as the pivot language instead of ILI. The Global WordNet Grid, as an approach, and the KYOTO project, as an instantiation of this approach, are shifting the idea of the pivot from lexical meanings to real semantics - the languages will be interlinked through the shared ontology. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of the KYOTO database, which is based on the Dictionary Editor and Browser (DEB) platform. The main ideas and assets of the platform are presented and the necessary additions and adaptation for the needs of the KYOTO project are depicted.

Abstract (in Czech)

V rámci projektů EuroWordNet I a II byly národní wordnety propojeny pomocí mezijazykového indexu, tzv. ILI. V následném projektu BALKANET, se, zejména z praktických důvodů, stala mezijazykovým pivotem angličtina. V rámci přístupu označovaného jako Global WordNet Grid, implementovaného v rámci projektu KYOTO, se myšlenka pivota přesouvá z lexikálních významů na skutečnou sémantiku - jazyky budou propojeny prostřednictvím sdílené ontologie. V tomto příspěvku popisujeme návrh a implementaci databáze KYOTO, která je založena na platformě Dictionary Editor and Browser (DEB). Uvádíme hlavní myšlenky a přínos platformy a popisujeme nezbytné doplnění a přizpůsobení pro potřeby projektu KYOTO.
