OMW Data

Overview

This release of OMW uses the WN-LMF 1.4 schema, which adds an index attribute on LexicalEntry elements and an n attribute on Sense elements (only for WNDB-derived lexicons, namely the English wordnets). These attributes allow one to get a precise ordering of words and senses aligned to what the original Princeton WordNet does for improved reproducibility. Exceptional forms are now only paired with forms matching in case, so, for instance, Buffalo (the city) does not get an alternative form buffaloes.

This release also updates and fixes some issues with the MCR and Arabic wordnets and removes duplicate entries in many wordnets. Finally, this release also includes English wordnets derived from pre-3.0 versions of the Princeton WordNet:

• WordNet 1.5
• WordNet 1.6
• WordNet 1.7
• WordNet 1.7.1
• WordNet 2.0
• WordNet 2.1

See below for a more granular list of changes.
