Abstract

This demo is a short work-in-progress presentation of importing RDF-based term ontologies in the R statistical software. I introduce an interface toolkit which allows R scripts to read term ontologies for statistical analysis of term entries.

Second, I present an interactive prototype for statistical exploration of parallel term ontologies. For evaluation purposes, I show a sample of term hits in a text corpus. For disambiguation of these corpus hits, I explain an attempt to categorize the hits with syntactic dependency structures.

Finally, I discuss how these attempts benefit importing term ontologies into machine translation and affect developing language models.
