SemLink is a project whose aim is to link together different lexical resources via a set of mappings. These mappings will make it possible to combine the different information provided by these different lexical resources for tasks such as inferencing. We also plan to use the mappings to aid in semi-automatic extension of each resources coverage, to increase the overall overlap in coverage. Currently, we are creating mappings between the following resources:
The content of all four of these resources can be browsed on-line using the Unified Verb Index. A presentation giving an introduction to SemLink, and two of the resources it combines (PropBank and VerbNet), was given at the SIGSEM/ISO workshop held jointly with the IWCS-7 conference.
