Refactoring and Testing of wordnet_based_similarity.rb


Introduction to WordNet

Expertiza is an application that aims at 'reusable learning objects through peer review'. It allows students to submit their work and review other's work. Our OSS project aims at refactoring and testing of the wordnet_based_similarity.rb. The file determines how similar concepts are, based on the WordNet database and is used in NLP analysis of reviews. WordNet is widely used resource for measuring similarity. It is a network of nouns,verbs,adjectives and adverbs which are grouped into synsets(synonymous words), and linked by lexical relations. WordNet is faster to query and involves no additional pre-processing despite having limitations in terms of domains it covers and lack of real world knowledge when compared to Wikipedia.It allows comparisons across different word forms.
