Creation of Shared Language Resource Repository in the Nordic and Baltic Countries

Proceeding volume: 8The META-NORD project has contributed to an open infrastructure for language resources (data and tools) under the META-NET umbrella. This paper presents the key objectives of META-NORD and reports on the results achieved in the first year of the project. META-NORD has mapped and described the national language technology landscape in the Nordic and Baltic countries in terms of language use, language technology and resources, main actors in the academy, industry, government and society; identified and collected the first batch of language resources in the Nordic and Baltic countries; documented, processed, linked, and upgraded the identified language resources to agreed standards and guidelines. The three horizontal multilingual actions in META-NORD are overviewed in this paper: linking and validating Nordic and Baltic wordnets, the harmonisation of multilingual Nordic and Baltic treebanks, and consolidating multilingual terminology resources across European countries. This paper also touches upon intellectual property rights for the sharing of language resources.Peer reviewe

Semantiske relationer i en ny dansk begrebsordbog: genbrug på tværs af ordbøger

This article discusses the synergies between thesauri, wordnets andsemasiological dictionaries, describing how the lexical data from awordnet (DanNet), as well as the data from a monolingual dictionary(The Danish Dictionary), are being used to establish a Danishthesaurus. In opposition to other thesauri, this one’s main organizingprinciple is the grouping of words by semantic criteria. It thuscombines words from different parts of speech in different types ofgroups. Furthermore, a number of formalized data on the words’ semanticrelations leave us with a large number of possibilities when itcomes to using thesaurus information in the online presentation ofThe Danish Dictionary. It also means that the thesaurus can be usedto extend the number of semantic relations in DanNet
