Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the possibility to expand Japanese WordNet using AutoExtend that can produce embedded vectors based on dictionary structure. Recently several kinds of NLP tasks showed that the distributed representations for words are effective, however, the word-embedded vectors constructed based on contexts of surrounded words would be difficult to discriminate meanings of a word because every vector is produced for a word. On the other hand, AutoExtend that can produce embedded vectors for meanings and concepts as well as words taking into account thesaurus structure of dictionary, has been proposed and applied into English WordNet. Thus, in this paper, we apply AutoExtend into a Japanese dictionary i.e., Japanese WordNet to construct embedded vectors for lexems and synsets as well as words taking into account thesaurus structure of Japanese WordNet. The experimental results show that embedded vectors constructed by AutoExtend can be helpful to find corresponding meanings for unregistered words in the dictionary.
