WordNet® is an online lexical reference system whose design is inspired by current psycholinguistic theories of human lexical memory. English nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are organized into synonym sets, each representing one underlying lexical concept. Different relations link the synonym sets.
S-Match is an open source Java framework for semantic matching. It contains semantic matching, minimal semantic matching and structure preserving semantic matching algorithm implementations.
