Comparing Wikipedia and German wordnet by evaluating semantic relatedness on multiple datasets

Abstract:
We evaluate semantic relatedness mea- sures on different German datasets showing that their performance depends on: (i) the definition of relatedness that was underlying the construction of the evaluation dataset, and (ii) the knowledge source used for computing semantic relatedness. We analyze how the underlying knowledge source influences the performance of a measure. Finally, we investigate the combination of wordnets and Wikipedia to improve the performance of semantic re- latedness measures.
