Beschreibung |
The IMSLex dictionary database is our central lexicon repository. It covers information on inflection, word formation, and valence for several ten thousand German base forms (see details below). From the IMSLex database, we derive specialized lexicon data for various applications in natural language processing, information retrieval, and information extraction. Where necessary, semantic information can be added from the Tübingen GermaNet lexical-semantic dictionary.
TechnologyIn order to keep the dictionary data as flexible as possible, it has been encoded on an XML basis. However, for efficiency reasons, the data is stored in a relational database with the help of XML-DBMS. The lexical data itself has been built up semi-automatically with the help of specialized text mining methods from corpus linguistics.
ApplicationsThe IMSLex data can be used in many ways:
