 The author describes a system for linking the thesaurus of the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision ([[http://instituut.beeldengeluid.nl/index.aspx?ChapterID=8532|GTAA]]) to English [[http://wordnet.princeton.edu| WordNet]] and [[http://dbpedia.org/About| DBpedia]]. He describes both approaches his group used for the alignment tasks: GTTA - English WordNet (illustrated on the left image) and GTTA-English dbpedia (illustrated on the right image). For each alignment the evaluation is presented and compared with another system's results, which was also taking on the challenge of the Very Large Cross-Lingual Recourses ([[http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2009/vlcr/|VLCR]]) task of the Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative ([[http://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2009/vlcr/|OAEI]]) workshop 2009. The author describes a system for linking the thesaurus of the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision ([[http://instituut.beeldengeluid.nl/index.aspx?ChapterID=8532|GTAA]]) to English [[http://wordnet.princeton.edu| WordNet]] and [[http://dbpedia.org/About| DBpedia]].

   * In the paper, there is no details how they are calculating evaluation. We suppose that they are using following widely used method: To evaluate the resulting alignment A we compare it to a reference/sample alignment (R) based on some criterion. The usual approach for evaluating the returned alignments is to consider them as sets of correspondences (pairs) and to apply precision and recall originating from information retrieval:     <latex>P = |R ∩ A| / |A|</latex>      <latex>R = |R ∩ A| /|R|</latex>    where <latex> P </latex> - Precision, <latex> R </latex>- recall; <latex>|R ∩ A|</latex> - The number of true positives; <latex>|A|</latex> - The number of the retrieved correspondences; <latex>|R|</latex> - The number of expected correspondences.   * In the paper, there is no details how they are calculating evaluation.

 +> Interesting thing - 67% of the terms from the GTAA (Duch linguistic resource) can be mapped to the Duch WordNet. It is much more, than the coverage of Czech WordNet over the terms from PDT (Prague Dependency Treebank). -MK-
 +> It has shown, that the cross-language links are not reversible, they are in relation n:n (many to many).-MK-
