Propose a combined design principle based on relational modelling?

No update on Michal’s report, more to be reported for the next meeting.

Non-circularity - avoided in traditional lexicography

  • Problematic for some properties (hypernym) not for others (similar)

  • technical possible to enforce this?

  • circularity in definitions (one refers to another and the other to the first)

  • logical fallacy in relations?

  • OntoLex has technical implementations like this based on OWL. relational databases use business logic rules… common problem, maybe we shouldn’t worry about it?

  • checking circularity of definitions is out of scope (?)

Moving open considerations into design principles

  • Promote “prefer relational modeling to nesting”

  • more flexible and diverse modelling?

    • continue to allow everything, but only allow one way to do it

  • nesting avoids circularity, but relational modelling requires ‘sanity check’ of data

  • personal decision about nesting in entries versus senses - be systematic about it

  • “relation to concept based models”

    • Do we understand what it means?

    • Does this mean that we look only at dictionaries not wordnets and ontologies

      • Semasiological resources only?

      • Doubts about why not to cover wordnets and terminologies.

      • Good standardization of terminological resources already

      • Would still have technical terms in dictionaries but treated as in a dictionary.

  • Some doubts: about relational modelling, is recursion in graph-based (RDF) models different from (XML-like) recursion?

Extend meeting by 30 mins?

  • JM: move the start time to be earlier? 1.30 pm WEST/WET

  • Time zone following European daylight savings time (remains the same European local time after DST elapses), so that the UTC time will change after 25th October 2020. Us will get back in sync in early November..
