Additionally, we extended our framework to extract complex adjective lexicalizations with a machine-learning-based approach.<br />\r\nM-ATOLL is the first open-source and multilingual approach for the generation of ontology lexica. In this thesis we present grammatical patterns for three different languages, on which the extraction of lexicalization relies.\r\n We provide an analysis of these patterns as well as a comparison with those proposed by other state-of-the-art systems. Additionally, we present a detailed evaluation comparing the different approaches with different settings on a publicly available goldstandard, and discuss their potential and limitations."}],"supervisor":[{"last_name":"Cimiano","first_name":"Philipp","id":"15020699","full_name":"Cimiano, Philipp"}],"first_contributor":"Walter, Sebastian","urn":"urn:nbn:de:0070-pub-29077066","place":"Bielefeld","file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","date_updated":"2019-09-06T09:18:42Z","relation":"main_file","date_created":"2017-01-01T13:32:52Z","file_name":"sebastian_walter_dissertation.pdf","access_level":"open_access","checksum":"4a5fcb1d7093ec11d8faa6ef20901a56","file_id":"2907707"}],"oa":1,"year":"2017","date_created":"2017-01-01T13:32:54Z","author":[{"orcid":"0000-0002-8589-8715","department":[{"_id":"8014655"},{"_id":"15019923"}],"full_name":"Walter, Sebastian","first_name":"Sebastian","id":"32983951","last_name":"Walter"}],"locked":"1","type_old":["dissertation","biDissertation","bidissertation","bi_dissertation"],"citation":{"ieee":" S.
