Homonyms and Synonyms in NOK Method

Knowledge representation is one of the areas covered by artificial intelligence. Method Nodes of Knowledge (NOK) is one of the methods which allows a graphical representation and organization of knowledge in the form of a DNOK diagram (Diagram of Nodes Of Knowledge) as a network of nodes. With this diagram the meaning of sentences is preserved. The problem occurs when words that have synonyms or homonyms, and whose meaning depends on the context, appear in the sentence which is being modeled. Every term used in modeling sentences is written in a dictionary, including homonyms and synonyms. This paper presents a metamodel mode of writing homonyms and synonyms into the dictionary from which words are used for modeling. This demonstrates that the NOK method can be applied to modeling dictionaries of natural languages.
