VerbOcean extractor
VerbOcean is a semantic network of verbs created by Timothy Chklovski and Patrick Pantel. VerbOcean extractor reads simple text files of VerbOcean file format and converts the file content to a Topic Map. Wandora does not include any VerbOcean file and you must download such file from http://demo.patrickpantel.com/Content/verbocean/ or generate your own VerbOcean file.
VerbOcean format
VerbOcean file format is a text 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:
pursue [happens-before] abandon :: 11.262514 abandon [opposite-of] pursue :: 10.178111 abandon [happens-before] renew :: 10.151251 abandon [opposite-of] renew :: 9.658213
