What are Semantic Networks?
a) A way of representing knowledge
b) Data Structure
c) Data Type
d) None of the mentioned
Graph used to represent semantic network is…………
a) Undirected graph
b) Directed graph
c) Directed Acyclic graph (DAG)
d) Directed complete graph
Explanation: Semantic Network is a directed graph consisting of vertices, which represent concepts and edges, which represent semantic relations between the concepts.
Which of the following are the Semantic Relations used in Semantic Networks?
a) Meronymy
b) Holonymy
c) Hyponymy
d) All of these
What is Meronymy relation?
a) A is part of B
b) B has A as a part of itself
c) A is a kind of B
d) A is superordinate of B
Explanation: A meronym denotes a constituent part of or a member of something. That is,
“X” is a meronym of “Y” if Xs are parts of Y(s), or
“X” is a meronym of “Y” if Xs are members of Y(s).
What is Hypernym relation?
a) A is part of B
b) B has A as a part of itself
c) A is a kind of B
d) A is superordinate of B
Explanation: In linguistics, a hyponym is a word or phrase whose semantic field is included within that of another word, its hypernym (sometimes spelled hypernym outside of the natural language processing community). In simpler terms, a hyponym shares a type-of relationship with its hypernym.
What is Holonymy relation?
a) A is part of B
b) B has A as a part of itself
c) A is a kind of B
d) A is superordinate of B
Explanation: Holonymy (in Greek holon = whole and onoma = name) is a semantic relation. Holonymy defines the relationship between a term denoting the whole and a term denoting a part of, or a member of, the whole. That is,
‘X’ is a holonym of ‘Y’ if Ys are parts of Xs, or
‘X’ is a holonym of ‘Y’ if Ys are members of Xs.
