English generated from various NLP databases". It's all
on SourceForge.
Was UML adequate for fully describing all ontological
issues?
In your opinion, what capabilities need to be added to
UML if UML alone isn't what you believe is needed for ontology?

Ed and Rich,
I changed the subject line to relate this long thread of
questions and debates to some useful resources. The note below, which was
sent to Corpora list, is an announcement of resources that were derived from
WordNet, SUMO, and other sources in various formats.
They used UML to design the schemas, and they translated
the results to SQLUNET, "a unified database for English generated from
various NLP databases". It's all on SourceForge.

What people find intuitive depends on their
experience. In any case, resources such as those listed below show that
translations from one notation to another may facilitate sharing and
interoperability.
Disclaimer: I have not used this software. I
don't know how useful it may be. But I'm citing it as an example of what
can be done.

Subject: [Corpora-List] New SQLUNet - SQL Unified XNets
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2015 08:36:55 +0200

SQLUNET - SQL Unified XNet
SQLUNET is a unified database for English generated from
various NLP databases (XNets).
It is unified, in that crossreferences are made possible:
tables reference each other through the foreign key mechanism.
It can be queried with standard SQL queries.
It was designed from UML down to schemas, table
definitions and MySql Workbench models.
It comes in 3 flavours:
- MySql
- Sqlite
- 'standard' SQL (may require some editing of table
creation)
- query samples and design documentation are provided
The XNets that make up SQLUNET:
- WordNet 3.0, 3.1
- WordNet legacy senses, sensemaps, synsetmaps 2.0, 2.1,
3.0
- VerbNet 3.2
- Propbank 1.7
- SemLink 1.2.2c
- FrameNet 1.5
- British National Corpus statistical data 2001
- SUMO CVS
- XWordNet 2.0-1.1
- GlossLF 3.0
- ILFwn 0.2
- PredicateMatrix 1.1
The builder's sources are available.
A forthcoming open-sourced SQLUNET browser will be
available on Android (now nearing alpha phase) which, early previews show, is
perfectly viable, and not only as proof-of-concept.
