Abstract

Semantic similarity computation is of great importance in many applications such as natural language processing, knowledge acquisition and information retrieval. In recent years, many concept similarity measures have been developed for ontology and lexical taxonomy. Generally speaking, ontology concepts semantic similarity computation is tedious and time-consuming. This paper puts forward an optimization algorithm to simplify semantic similarity computation. The optimization algorithm utilizes hierarchical relationship between concepts to simplify similarity computation process. Simulation experiments showed the optimization algorithm could make similarity computation simple and convenient, and similarity computation speed was improved by one time. The more complexity an ontology structure, and the bigger the maximum depth of ontology, the more significantly the performance improved.
