One way to achieve semantic interoperability when data lexicalized in different languages is by means of cross-lingual linking.

Abstract

One way to achieve semantic interoperability when data lexicalized in different languages is by means of cross-lingual linking. Translation resources are used as an intermediate step to reduce the language barriers. The key challenge is to select the correct mapping among candidate matches. We define an experiment to study upper bounds for the correctness of a cross-lingual ontology matching system. We highlight different lexical characteristics that can support the selection step. We believe that our findings can be useful in the design of cross-lingual mapping algorithms.
