Abstract

This paper reports on the first steps in the creation of linked data through the mapping between the synsets of BTB-WordNet and the articles in Bulgarian Wikipedia. The task of expanding the BTB-WordNet with encyclopaedic knowledge is done by mapping its synsets to Wikipedia articles with many MWEs found in the articles and subjected to further analysis. We look for a way to filter the Wikipedia MWEs in the effort of selecting the ones most beneficial to the enrichment of BTB-WN.
