Abstract

Concept extraction from text is a key step in concept-level text analysis. In this chapter, we propose a ConceptNet-based semantic parser that deconstructs natural language text into concepts based on the dependency relation between clauses. Our approach is domain-independent and is able to extract concepts from heterogeneous text. Through this parsing technique, 92.21 was obtained on a dataset of 3,204 concepts. We also show experimental results on three different text analysis tasks, on which the proposed framework outperformed state-of-the-art parsing techniques.
