Med Zipf mot framtiden - en integrerad lexikonresurs för svensk språkteknologi

Digital resources resulting from research projects will often languish once the project ends. Lack of funding for resource maintenance, resource non-interoperability and closed-content license formats contribute to this. At the Swedish Language Bank, University of Gothenburg, we are now integrating a number of existing free lexical resources into a new open-content resource for Swedish language technology applications. We ensure interoperability among resources by using the standardized SALDO lexicon sense and lemgram identifiers as pivot. On top of the integrated resource, we are defining a Swedish framenet, reusing a considerable amount of linguistic knowledge already encoded in the existing resources.2
