Managing Synonyms

[Askir]

Description

Spike out how we could manage synonyms in our system.

Tasks/Questions

• Gather some knowledge about wordnet: https://wordnet.princeton.edu/
• Should we use textblob to access it? https://textblob.readthedocs.io/en/dev/
• Read this paper and blog article about neo4j + wordnet and see if it is of any use for us:
  • https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2F978-3-319-66562-7.pdf
  • http://tomkdickinson.co.uk/2017/05/combining-wordnet-and-conceptnet-in-neo4j/
• Think of a design on how to handle synonyms in our current system (i.e. add more tags via synonyms, enrich the search query with synonyms, save synonyms in neo4j and connect artifacts to wordnet graph, etc.)
• Spike your chosen approach with a few lines of code in a different branch where you test all chose libraries and see if it will actually work as you thought it out.
• Research more when question about neo4j and/or wordnet and/or textblob arise
