LexInfo is the data category ontology forOntoLex-Lemon, which provides descriptionof lexicographic resources in RDF relative to ontologies

Set up the Python environment as follows

python -m venv envsource env/bin/activatepip install -r requirements.txt

For subsequent usages rerun the following command

source env/bin/activate

The ontology can be built with the following command

python src/build-ontology.py

The most recent ontology is available atontology/3.0/lexinfo.owl

The following are the steps to deploy the ontology

python src/build-ontology.py > ontology/3.0/lexinfo.owlcp ontology/3.0/lexinfo.owl docs/ontology/3.0/lexinfo.owlrapper -o turtle docs/ontology/3.0/lexinfo.owl > docs/ontology/3.0/lexinfo.ttl

The ontology is generated from a selection of CSV and Turtle files:

The list of the morphosyntactic properties is available indata/morphosyntactic_properties.csv.The values for each of these properties are listed in individual CSV files inthedata/values folder.

Properties for defining entries are listed indata/definitions.csv. These aredatatype properties whose range is assumed to be a lang-tagged literal.

The representations are listed indata/representations.csv. These can be usedin place of the defaultwrittenRep andphoneticRep properties in OntoLex

The usages give usage restrictions on a sense and are listed indata/usages.csv.

These extend the synsem module of OntoLex

The arguments are listed in the filedata/syntactic_arguments.csv, some extrainformation about the arguments is added in the filedata/args.ttl.

The frames are lists in the filedata/frames.csv and further definition isgiven in Turtle indata/frames.ttl. In addition, examples of the frames arelist indata/frame_examples.csv
