Abstract
The paper reports on the creation of a terminological subset belonging to the maritime lexical domain; this set of terms is structured according to the design principles of the generic Italian lexical semantic database ItalWordNet, i.e. applying the same semantic relations model and using the possibility of linking the specialised terms to the corresponding closest concepts in WordNet. The main characteristics of the lexical semantic database are also described and, in particular: i) the construction of the terminological wordnet; ii) the approach adopted to connect the terminological database to the generic one; iii) some issues about the mapping between the Italian terms and the Princeton WordNet; iv) a first outline of a specific maritime domain ontology.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
