Incorrect lemon namespace in WordNet RDF? #2

First, allow me to say that I was delighted to find the WordNet RDF build that you have developed. I’m excited at the opportunity to utilize your semantic representation of WordNet. Many other projects that attempt this are quite poor or outdated in comparison.

I’m doing some research and am currently making use of WordNet RDF to align a collection of domain ontologies with WordNet to facilitate natural language processing. Specifically, I am very interested in the intersection of semantic distance and WordNet topologies to allow entity tagging and word sense disambiguation free text documents.

I am using the N-Triples version of WordNet RDF published at this location (i couldn't find a copy of the file stored on GitHub): http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/

However, I have run into an issue, and am curious to know if I have made a mistake, or simply misunderstanding something.

In the WordNet n-triples file referenced above, usages of properties from lemon use the following namespace: http://lemon-model.net/lemon#

However, the default namespace defined in the lemon ontology downloaded from (http://lemon-model.net/download/download.php) is: http://www.lemon-model.net/lemon#

This is causing confusion, as to which namespace is correct. I am thinking that the correct namespace is what is defined within the lemon ontology itself, but wanted to see if I was missing something or had a misunderstanding.

Hi,

Thanks for you comment. You should prefer the http://lemon-model.net/lemon as the URL although both resolve equally well. I have ensured the hosted versions are up-to-date

Thanks so much for the quick reply. I've downloaded the updated copies and everything is now in sync.

Best! Joe
