From Sartre to Frege in Three Steps: A* Search for Enriching Semantic Text Similarity Measures

English. In this paper we illustrate a preliminary investigation on semantic text similarity. In particular, the proposed approach is aimed at complementing and enriching the categorization results obtained by employing standard distributional resources. We found that the paths connecting entities and concepts from documents at stake provide interesting information on the connections between document pairs. Such semantic browsing device enables further semantic processing, aimed at unveiling contexts and hidden connections (possibly not explicitly mentioned in the documents) between text documents.1
