Conversion of the Spanish WordNet databases into a Prolog-readable format

Abstract

WordNet is a lexical database for English that is supplied in a variety of formats, including one compatible with the Prolog programming language. Given the success and usefulness of WordNet, +AGAAYA-WordNets'' of other languages have been developed, including Spanish. The Spanish WordNet does not provide a version compatible with Prolog. This work aims to fill that gap by translating a version of the Spanish WordNet into a Prolog-compatible format. Thanks to this translation, we would obtain a set of Spanish lexical databases that would allow us to access that information using declarative techniques and the deductive capabilities of the Prolog language. Also, this work would facilitate the development of other programs to analyze the obtained information.
