Nowadays, wordnets are extensively used as a major resource in natural language processing and information retrieval tasks. Therefore, the accuracy of wordnets has a direct influence on the performance of the involved applications. This paper presents a fully-automated method for extending a previously developed Persian wordnet to cover more comprehensive and accurate verbal entries. At first, by using a bilingual dictionary, some Persian verbs are linked to Princeton WordNet synsets. A feature set related to the semantic behavior of compound verbs as the majority of Persian verbs is proposed. This feature set is employed in a supervised classification system to select the proper links for inclusion in the wordnet. We also benefit from a pre-existing Persian wordnet, FarsNet, and a similarity-based method to produce a training set. This is the largest automatically developed Persian wordnet with more than 27,000 words, 28,000 PWN synsets and 67,000 word-sense pairs that substantially outperforms the previous Persian wordnet with about 16,000 words, 22,000 PWN synsets and 38,000 word-sense pairs.

Translation Study

Machine translation (MT) has recently attracted much research on various advanced techniques (i.e., statistical-based and deep learning-based) and achieved great results for popular languages. However, the research on it involving low-resource languages such as Korean often suffer from the lack of openly available bilingual language resources. In this research, we built the open extensive parallel corpora for training MT models, named Ulsan parallel corpora (UPC). Currently, UPC contains two parallel corpora consisting of Korean-English and Korean-Vietnamese datasets. The Korean-English dataset has over 969 thousand sentence pairs, and the Korean-Vietnamese parallel corpus consists of over 412 thousand sentence pairs. Furthermore, the high rate of homographs of Korean causes an ambiguous word issue in MT. To address this problem, we developed a powerful word-sense annotation system based on a combination of sub-word conditional probability and knowledge-based methods, named UTagger. We applied UTagger to UPC and used these corpora to train both statistical-based and deep learning-based neural MT systems. The experimental results demonstrated that using UPC, high-quality MT systems (in terms of the Bi-Lingual Evaluation Understudy (BLEU) and Translation Error Rate (TER) score) can be built. Both UPC and UTagger are available for free download and usage.

Word sense induction (WSI), or the task of automatically discovering multiple senses or meanings of a word, has three main challenges: domain adaptability, novel sense detection, and sense granularity flexibility. While current latent variable models are known to solve the first two challenges, they are not flexible to different word sense granularities, which differ very much among words, from aardvark with one sense, to play with over 50 senses. Current models either require hyperparameter tuning or nonparametric induction of the number of senses, which we find both to be ineffective. Thus, we aim to eliminate these requirements and solve the sense granularity problem by proposing AutoSense, a latent variable model based on two observations: (1) senses are represented as a distribution over topics, and (2) senses generate pairings between the target word and its neighboring word. These observations alleviate the problem by (a) throwing garbage senses and (b) additionally inducing fine-grained word senses. Results show great improvements over the stateof-the-art models on popular WSI datasets. We also show that AutoSense is able to learn the appropriate sense granularity of a word. Finally, we apply AutoSense to the unsupervised author name disambiguation task where the sense granularity problem is more evident and show that AutoSense is evidently better than competing models.
