UBY - A Large-Scale Unified Lexical-Semantic Resource

UBY is a large-scale lexical-semantic resource for natural language processing (NLP) based on the ISO standard Lexical Markup Framework (LMF). UBY combines a wide range of information from expert-constructed and collaboratively constructed resources for English and German. Currently, UBY holds structurally and semantically interoperable versions of ten resources in two languages:

English WordNet, Wiktionary, Wikipedia, FrameNet and VerbNet,
German Wikipedia, Wiktionary, GermaNet and IMSLex-Subcat, and multilingual OmegaWiki.
