Abstract

Lexical resources are increasingly multiplatform due to the diverse needs of linguists as well as other various user communities. Merging, comparing, making correspondences and deducing differences between these lexical resources remain difficult tasks. Thus, interoperability between these resources is an extremely difficult task. In this context, we define a new method based on the MDA approach to resolve interoperability between lexical resources. The proposed method consists in building a common structure (OWL-DL ontology) for the various resources. This common structure has the ability to communicate different resources. Hence, we may create a complex grid between these resources allowing transformation from one format to another. We experiment our new built method on the basis of an LMF(LMF: Lexical Markup Framework) compliant lexical resource.
