Ontology Self-Perfect Based Lexical Chain for IE

Abstract

The perfection of an ontology knowledge base is essential to the research of ontology-based information extraction (IE). Information extraction in short documents with sparse vocabularies in the ontology will cause the problem of semantic deviation. That will affect the indexes of information extraction in short documents. In this paper, we propose a method of using lexical chain to perfect the ontology knowledge base automatically in order to cover the shortage of manual constructed ontology. We can solve the problem of semantic information deficiency caused by the sparse vocabulary in the ontology effectively through the use of this method. We proved the validity of our method through the series of experiments we conducted.
