Frame-semantic web: A case study for Korean

Abstract

FrameNet itself can become a resource for the SemanticWeb. It can be represented in RDF. However, mapping FrameNet to other resources such as Wikipedia for building a knowledge base becomes more common practice. By such mapping, FrameNet can be considered to provide capability to describe the semantic relations between RDF data. Since the FrameNet resource has been proven very useful, multiple global projects for other languages have arisen over the years, parallel to the original English FrameNet. Accordingly, signicant steps were made to further develop FrameNet for Korean. This paper presents how frame semantics becomes a frame-semantic web.We also provide the Wikipedia coverage by Korean FrameNet lexicons in the context of constructing a knowledge base from sentences in Wikipedia to show the usefulness of our work on frame semantics in the Semantic Web environment.
