%0 Journal Article %T Hyponymy Patterns in Romanian %A Verginica Barbu Mititelu %J Memoirs of the Scientific Sections of the Romanian Academy %D 2011 %I Publishing House of the Romanian Academy %X Hyponymy is a lexical-semantic relation that has been studied in Romanian linguistics only occasionally and almost exclusively in connection to other relations. However, for computational engineers it offers a very effective way of organizing the lexical material useful in many applications involving Natural Language Processing. In this paper we present two methods of identifying Romanian hyponymy patterns, their results and evaluation; we also envisage the applicability of these patterns and future work. %K Wordnet %K Semantic relations %K Hyponymy patterns %U http://www.academiaromana-is.ro/Reviste/mem_sc_st_2011/03_MSS_Barbu%20Mititelu.pdf
