The relation between ontologies and language is currently at the
forefront of natural language processing (NLP). Ontologies, as
widely used models in semantic technologies, have much in common
with the lexicon. A lexicon organizes words as a conventional
inventory of concepts, while an ontology formalizes concepts and
their logical relations. A shared lexicon is the prerequisite for
knowledge-sharing through language, and a shared ontology is the
prerequisite for knowledge-sharing through information technology.
In building models of language, computational linguists must be
able to accurately map the relations between words and the concepts
that they can be linked to. This book focuses on the technology
involved in enabling integration between lexical resources and
semantic technologies. It will be of interest to researchers and
graduate students in NLP, computational linguistics, and knowledge
engineering, as well as in semantics, psycholinguistics, lexicology
and morphology/syntax.
