Abstract
Pattern-based approaches for knowledge identification in texts assume that linguistic regularities always characterise the same kind of knowledge, such as semantic relations. We report the experimental evaluation of a large set of patterns using an ontology enrichment tool: Camélé on. Results underline the strong corpus influence on the patterns efficiency and on their meaning. This influence confirms two of the hypotheses that motivated to define Camélé on as a support used in a supervised process: (1) patterns and relations must be adapted to each project; (2) human interpretation is required to decide how to report in the ontology the pieces of knowledge identified with patterns.
