同义词=翻译对等

Synonymy = Translational Equivalence

University of Alberta(阿尔伯塔大学)

Bradley Hauer, Grzegorz Kondrak

摘要:

同义关系和翻译对等是指语言内部和语言之间的意义相同的关系。作为词网和多词网中的主要关系,它们对计算词汇语义学至关重要,但该领域缺乏一个共同的形式化框架来定义它们的属性和关系。本文提出了一种统一处理这两种关系的方法,并在现有资源上进行了实验验证。在我们看来,同义和翻译对等只是语义同一性的不同类型。这一理论为重新评价跨语言语义学的研究成果奠定了坚实的基础,也为词汇资源的创建、验证和改进提供了便利。

英文摘要:

Synonymy and translational equivalence are the relations of sameness of meaning within and across languages. As the principal relations in wordnets and multi-wordnets, they are vital to computational lexical semantics, yet the field suffers from the absence of a common formal framework to define their properties and relationship. This paper proposes a unifying treatment of these two relations, which is validated by experiments on existing resources. In our view, synonymy and translational equivalence are simply different types of semantic identity. The theory establishes a solid foundation for critically re-evaluating prior work in cross-lingual semantics, and facilitating the creation, verification, and amelioration of lexical resources.
