Results and Evaluation of Hungarian Nominal WordNet v 1 . 0

This paper presents recent results of the ongoing project aimed at creating the nominal database of the Hungarian WordNet. We present 9 different automatic methods, developed for linking Hungarian nouns to WN 1.6 synsets. Nominal entries are obtained from two different machine-readable dictionaries, a bilingual EnglishHungarian and an explanatory monolingual (Hungarian). The results are evaluated against a manually disambiguated test set. The final version of the nominal database is produced by combining the verified result sets and their intersections when confidence scores exceeded certain threshold values.
