WordNet-SenseKey version 1.03 ============================= The WordNet::Similarity package is designed to work with words in the form of lemma#pos#num where "lemma" is the word lemma, "pos" is the part of speech, and "num" is the sense number. Unfortuantely, the sense numbering is not stable from one WordNet release to another. Thus, for external programs, it can often be more useful to work with sense keys. Unfortunately, the Wordnet::Similarity package is unaware of sense keys. This class fills that gap. A description of sense keys may be found at http://wordnet.princeton.edu/man/senseidx.5WN.html or the man page 'senseidx(5WN)' INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: WordNet::QueryData COPYRIGHT AND LICENCE Copyright (C) 2008, 2009 by Linas Vepstas This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
