Aside from being English-only, this database was hand-coded and significant effort is required to create similar databases for different domains and languages. Projects like EuroWord-Net address the monolingual aspect of WordNet, but these databases are still labor intensive to create. On the other hand, the quality of the information contained in a WordNet (Fellbaum et al., 1998) is very reliable, exactly because it was manually created. FrameNet (Baker et al., 1998) and OpenCyc are other valuable resources for English, also hand-created, that contain a rich set of relations between words and concepts. Their use is still being explored as they have been made available only recently. For Japanese, there are also concept dictionaries providing semantic relations, similarly hand-created, e.g., EDR and Nihongo Goi-taikei (NTT).</Paragraph> <Paragraph position="1"> The demonstration of MindNet will highlight that this resource is automatically created, allowing domain lexical resources to be built quickly, albeit with lesser accuracy. We are confident that this is a trade-off worth making in many cases, and encourage experimentation in this area. MNEX allows the exploration of the rich set of relations through which paths connecting words are linked.</Paragraph> </Section> class="xml-element"></Paper>
