This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).The work constitutes a significant update of WordNet, a large electronic lexical database of English that is a cornerstone of research and applications in computational linguistics, Natural Language Processing, Knowledge Representation, Semantic Web applications and that serves as the basis for numerous computational linguistics tools. WordNet?s database is redesigned and converted from a text-based to a relational (SQL) format to allow flexible and domain-specific extensions. Specific tasks include the definition of an SQL schema, the development of an ASCII-to-WordNetSQL table translation program, a searching interface and additional format conversion utilities. Syntactic limitations on WordNet?s lexicographer files and compiler are eliminated so as to allow long, variable-length word strings and special characters found technical terminology. The table-based SQL format is designed to allow a virtually unlimited number of relations per word form or synonym set, both user-created and ?original? to the Princeton WordNet. User extensions and modifications to WordNetSQL are distinguished from those made ?domestically,? ensuring that development of the core WordNet database remains independent of external updates, and that WordNet?s large user community continues to have available a common, consistent database against which automatic systems can be evaluated. We develp conversion tools for WordNetSQL and other popular WordNet representations (RDF/OWL, Prolog, XML). Maintenance of the Princeton WordNet lexicon and user support continue. The major impact of the freely and publicly available WordNetSQL is to enable flexible extensions by a broad and diverse user group to specific and technical domains including biology and medicine.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。WordNet是一个大型英语电子词汇数据库，是计算语言学、自然语言处理、知识表示、语义网应用研究和应用的基石，也是众多计算语言学工具的基础。WordNet吗?s数据库被重新设计并从基于文本的格式转换为关系（SQL）格式，以允许灵活的和特定于领域的扩展。具体的任务包括SQL模式的定义、ascii到wordnetsql表转换程序的开发、搜索接口和其他格式转换实用程序。WordNet的语法限制？字典编辑器文件和编译器被删除，以便允许长，可变长度的字串和特殊字符找到技术术语。基于表的SQL格式被设计为允许每个单词形式或同义词集几乎无限数量的关系，包括用户创建的和原始的。到普林斯顿的WordNet用户对WordNetSQL的扩展和修改不同于在国内进行的扩展和修改。确保核心WordNet数据库的开发不受外部更新的影响，并且确保WordNet？美国的大型用户社区仍然有一个公共的、一致的数据库，可以根据这个数据库对自动系统进行评估。我们为WordNetSQL和其他流行的WordNet表示（RDF/OWL, Prolog， XML）开发转换工具。继续维护普林斯顿WordNet词典和用户支持。免费和公开的WordNetSQL的主要影响是使广泛和多样化的用户组能够灵活地扩展到特定的技术领域，包括生物学和医学。
