Abstract

EcoLexicon is a frame-based knowledge base on the environment. Theinformation it contains is coherently structured within a prototypical domain event, the Environmental Event (EE). At an intra- and intercategorial level, a closed inventory of relations has been defined that relates concepts to each other as well as to the EE. It will be the basis for a formal domain ontology which will serve computational purposes, enhance searches and allow for automatic information extraction. Theoretical premises from Frame-Based Terminology, the Generative Lexicon and the Lexical-Constructional Model provide a streamlined formalism that brings us one step closer to a formal ontology.

Keywords: frame-based terminology; generative lexicon; lexical constructional model; formalism; ontology Arianne Reimerink, Pilar León Araúz and Pamela Faber University of Granada
