Measuring of similarity between verb pairs in the biomedical domain
An ontology-based information content perspective
Keywords:
semantic, similarity, verb similarity, wordnetAbstract
Finding the similarity Ontology-based between two verbs in bio-medical ontology is a difficult task as there is no standard dataset available. This paper is focused on verb-based similarity. So, the similarity between two nouns is taken as the benchmark for working on the verb similarity. There is no exact idea that the verb hierarchy of wordnet is capable to calculate the verb similarity between two verbs. The finding of similarity considers three parameters such as path, link, and depth. But in this paper, in addition to the path, link, and depth parameters, we also considered parameters such as stem-similarity weighting, derivation nouns weighting, and gloss similarity weighting. Moreover, we implemented two algorithms namely Rich Hierarchy Exploration and Shallow Hierarchy Exploration on a dataset and found that there is no significant difference in its performance.
