Releases

The newer DanNet releases use the release date as the version number, formatted as YYYY-MM-DD.

SNAPSHOT: Supersenses

Added 67263 Supersenses to DanNet based on a mapping devised for the SemDaX corpora.

WN-LMF has been added as an alternative format following a request on Github. The new file, dannet-wn-lmf.xml.gz, can even be used directly in software such as goodmami/wn (see also: example on Github). Unfortunately, WN-LMF currently does not support the full set of data found in DanNet; for instance, our ontological types are not present in this format and the same applies to DanNet-specific relations such as used for.
A total of 1906 bad source references to DDO have been removed from the dataset. These dns:source-relations had been created automatically based on IDs that exclusively exist within DanNet and for this reason they couldn't reference DDO.
88 Synset definitions have been fixed such that the split between titles and occupations is correct.
Synset indegrees have been recalculated.

The CSV export has been improved by...
1. ... removing the presence of internal IDs in synsets.csv (referring to ontological types) replacing them instead with the concrete mix of ontological types.
2. ... including lexical entries in words.csv which were previously erroneously excluded.
Some Lexical entries which were formerly of the generic ontolex:LexicalEntry type now have more specific types, e.g. ontolex:Word, ontolex:MultiWordExpression, or ontolex:Affix.
Some of the parts-of-speech for the adjectives added in release 2023-05-11 were missing a PoS relation and/or mixed up two separate relation types; this has now been fixed.

dns:shortLabel variants of synset labels (derived from, amongst other things, word frequencies from DDO) have been added to the DanNet dataset.
dns:source is now used once again to link to the original dictionary entry sources such as DDO. The usage of dc:source was both problematic wrt. its definition in the schema, as well the annoying fact that dc in some cases results in confusion when used as an RDF prefix as it may be hardcoded to a specific IRI.
Some sense labels had lost their language (@da) by mistake and this has now been fixed.

The wn:has_domain_topic relation had been used in place of wn:domain_topic in the DanNet dataset. This has now been corrected.

DanNet now has around 10K new links to the CILI which is also linked with the OEWN and other WordNets.
Some new relations (dns:eqHypernym, dns:eqHyponym, and dns:eqSimilar) have been added since wn:ili and wn:eqSynonym were not sufficient to cover the inter-WordNet links we now have.
DanNet synsets now also have the raw DDO domain values from DSL that were present in the older versions of DanNet. These are represented with the dc:subject relation.
Furthermore, the sex/gender data from the older versions of DanNet has also been included. It is available via the new dns:gender relation.
To better facilitate graph navigation on the DanNet website, a new relation called dns:linkedConcept has been added to the DanNet schema. This relation is the inverse of wn:ili and is inferred in the large graph that can be queried on wordnet.dk/dannet.

The schema translations have been updated.
Around 5000 links have been added which link DanNet to the Open English WordNet or indirectly via the CILI.
The OEWN dataset has received a companion dataset containing generated labels for synsets, senses, and words.
dns:dslSense and dns:source have been removed from the DanNet schema (dns:source has been replaced by dc:source)

The following changes to our datasets will be available in the next version:

Many DanNet words and senses have been linked to DDO via the new dns:source relation.
Unofficial conjugations present in the COR companion dataset have been marked as such in their rdfs:label.
Various other smaller tweaks to the COR dataset.
The DDS dataset now uses 32-bit float as opposed to double, which results in a smaller RDF export as this data type doesn't require any special encoding in .ttl-files.

There are too many changes in this initial release to list all of them in a succinct way:

Around 5000 new senses have been added, mostly adjectives.
Many dataset inconsistencies and other undesirable properties have been cleaned up.
The entirety of DanNet has been converted to the Ontolex standard and uses the relations from the Global WordDet Association.
DanNet is now RDF-native; RDF schemas are also available covering e.g. the ontological types.
The DSL-derived DanNet IDs all resolve to actual RDF resources which can be viewed in a browser.
Several companion datasets are available for download and are also merged with the data on wordnet.dk.
Additional data points have also been inferred from the bootstrap data, e.g. inverse relations.
The CSV download is now CSVW and includes metadata files describing contents of the columns.
The DanNet data is now licensed as CC BY-SA 4.0 and the source code of the project is available under the MIT licence.
... and of course wordnet.dk/dannet is the new home of DanNet.

In addition to the work done on DanNet itself, we have also contributed to the Global WordNet Association's RDF schema.
