Abstract
The representation of lexical semantic knowledge has been one of the most important research topics in the field of computational lexical semantics. Among relevant lexical resources, the design architecture of Princeton WordNet is the most popular one. In this paper, however, we argue that the current synset scheme requires more extensions when applied to the analysis of deeper sense structure in Chinese Wordnet. Issues involved include the underlying structure of sense, meaning facet and their relations. Based on a large amount of empirical analysis of sense data, this paper proposes a fine-grained framework in representing lexical semantic knowledge for Chinese Wordnet, which we believe will be an important consideration for the envisioned cross-lingual global wordnet grid construction. The systematic polysemy patterns found among meaning facets can also be used as a human gold standard of hand-annotated data for metonymy resolution task.
