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 />
