Title Browsing and Supporting Pluricentric Global Wordnet, or just your Wordnet of Interest
Authors António Branco, Ruben Branco, Chakaveh Saedi and João Silva
Abstract In this paper we proceed with a systematic gathering of design requirements for wordnet browsers that permit to consult the content of wordnets. This is undertaken together with a review of the functionalities of existing browsers. On the basis of this analysis, we present a new wordnet browser we developed that meets these requirements and thus complies with the most ample range of design features. This is an open source browser that is freely distributed and can be reused by anyone interested in doing research on or just using wordnets. We also introduce the notion of a pluricentric global wordnet, for whose undertaking this new advanced browser appears as an important instrument and motivation. This is a promising operative conception for a bootstrapped yet effective process towards the ultimate global wordnet, where all individual wordnets from all languages are meant to eventually converge together, in spite of the plurality of their formats, licenses, depth, etc. that is intrinsic to an inherently plural endeavor undertaken by multiple actors under multiple constraints across the world.
