English translation of selected chapters of the WikiWord thesis "Automatischer Aufbau eines multilingualen Thesaurus durch Extraktion semantischer und lexikalischer Relationen aus der Wikipedia" by Daniel Kinzler. Translation by the author.
My diploma thesis about a system to automatically build a multilingual thesaurus from wikipedia, "WikiWord", is finally done. I handed it in yesterday. My research will hopefully help to make Wikipedia more accessible for automatic processing
the data here is useful for testing classification / clustering, and the accuracy of indexing techniques. However the datasets are too small to make claims about the efficiency of indexing.
