Although efforts towards the taxonomization of Wikipedia categories do exist in the literature (Ponzetto and Strube, 2011; Nastase and Strube, 2013), the results are of a lower quality than a hand-built lexical resource.
as was done in previous work (Mihalcea and Moldovan, 2001;Ciaramita and Altun, 2006;Izquierdo et al., 2009;Erk and McCarthy, 2009;Huang and Riloff, 2010), we pick out our semantic classes C from WordNet and leverage its manually-curated taxonomy to associate our arguments with the most suitable class.
