with a preface by George Miller WordNet, an electronic lexical database,                  is considered to be the most important resource available to researchers in                  computational linguistics, text analysis, and many related areas. Its design is                  inspired by current psycholinguistic and computational theories of human lexical                  memory. English nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs are organized into synonym                  sets, each representing one underlying lexicalized concept. Different relations link                  the synonym sets.The purpose of this volume is twofold. First, it discusses the                  design of WordNet and the theoretical motivations behind it. Second, it provides a                  survey of representative applications, including word sense identification,                  information retrieval, selectional preferences of verbs, and lexical                  chains.Contributors : Reem Al-Halimi, Robert C.
