2.2 JST Thesaurus Headwords and Synonyms
| Data name | JST Thesaurus Headwords and Synonyms |
|---|---|
| Description of data contents | We have made a user dictionary of morphological analysis engine MeCab (http://taku910.github.io/mecab/) headwords and synonyms of JST Thesaurus (2015 edition) . As no reading was given to synonyms (Headword Flag: 'V') in the original thesaurus, NBDC had given natural reading to synonyms in life science (Category code: 'LSxx', where xx is a two-digit number) and computer science (Category code: 'EG01') and reading of base form to synonyms in other categories. |
