VerbOcean is a semantic network of verbs created by Timothy Chklovski and Patrick Pantel at the University of Southern California. VerbOcean extractor reads simple text files of VerbOcean file format and converts the file content to a Topic Map. Wandora does not include VerbOcean files and you must download such file from VerbOcean's home page or generate a VerbOcean file of your own.
VerbOcean file format
VerbOcean file format is a text file format where each line contains a quartet with two verbs and a relation, and a strenght value. Below is a small fragment of VerbOcean file:

The file may also contain comments. Comment lines start with # character.
