Defining hierarchy of classes using WordNet<br />
Lower classes of Wikipedia are connected to<br />
higher class of WordNet<br />
E.g.# American people in Japan is a subclass of person<br />
First category name is split in pre, head and post.<br />
pre American head people post in Japan<br />
head is stemmed to its singular form<br />
people → person<br />
If pre + head is in WordNet, desired class is achieved<br />
American person<br />
else, only head compound is searched<br />
The match with highest frequency sysnset is used.<br />
Exception like capital whose predominant sense in WordNet<br />
(financial asset) and Wikipedia (capital city) differed were<br />
manually corrected<br />
