La base lexicale Démonette : entre sémantique constructionnelle et morphologie dérivationnelle

International audienceDémonette is a lexical database whose vertices (lexical entries) and edges (morphological relations between the vertices) are annotated with morpho-semantic information. It results from an original design incorporating two radically different approaches: Morphonette, a resource based on derivational analogies and DériF, an analyzer based on linguistic rules. However, Daemonette is not a simple merger of two pre-existing ressources: its architecture is fully compatible with the lexematic approach to morphology; its contents can be extended using data from various other sources. The article presents the Démonette model and the content of its current version, including 31,204 verbs, action nouns, agent nouns and property adjectives, where morphological links between both direct ascendants and indirectly related words have bi-oriented definitions. Finally, Démonette is assessed with respect to Verbaction with a recall of 84% and a precision of 90%
