Word Embedding synonyms semantic category Sejong semantic dictionary

Semantic Role Decision defines the semantic relationship between the predicate and the arguments in natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The semantic role information and semantic category information should be used to make Semantic Role Decisions. The Sejong Electronic Dictionary contains frame information that is used to determine the semantic roles. In this paper, we propose a method to extend the Sejong electronic dictionary using word embedding and synonyms. The same experiment is performed using existing word-embedding and retrofitting vectors. The system performance of the semantic category assignment is 32.19%, and the system performance of the extended semantic category assignment is 51.14% for words that do not appear in the Sejong electronic dictionary of the word using the word embedding. The system performance of the semantic category assignment is 33.33%, and the system performance of the extended semantic category assignment is 53.88% for words that do not appear in the Sejong electronic dictionary of the vector using retrofitting. We also prove it is helpful to extend the semantic category word of the Sejong electronic dictionary by assigning the semantic categories to new words that do not have assigned semantic categories.
