BabelNet is a
synsets. For each Babel synset, BabelNet provides short definitions (called glosses
) in many languages harvested from both WordNet and Wikipedia.
Statistics of BabelNet
As of April 2021[update], BabelNet (version 5.0) covers 500
SPARQL endpoint
. 2.67 million synsets are assigned domain labels.
Applications
BabelNet has been shown to enable multilingual
Natural Language Processing applications. The lexicalized knowledge
available in BabelNet has been shown to obtain state-of-the-art results in:
- multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation[6]
- multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation and
- video games with a purpose[8]
Prizes and acknowledgments
BabelNet received the META prize 2015 for "groundbreaking work in overcoming language barriers through a multilingual lexicalised semantic network and ontology making use of heterogeneous data sources".
BabelNet featured prominently in a Time magazine article[9] about the new age of innovative and up-to-date lexical knowledge resources available on the Web.
