NAME
wnDepths.pl - find depths of WordNet taxonomies
SYNOPSIS
wnDepths.pl [[--wnhome=PATH] [--outfile=FILE|-] [--depthfile=FILE] [--wps] [--verbose]] | --help | --version]
DESCRIPTION
wnDepths.pl finds the depths of WordNet's noun and verb taxonomies; it can also find the depth of each synset in WordNet. This program was originally written for use with the WordNet::Similarity::lch and WordNet::Similarity::wup measures of semantic similarity, but it likely has other uses as well.
OPTIONS
--wnpath=path
The path to WordNet data files. The default is /usr/local/WordNet-2.1/dict on Unix and C:\WordNet\2.1\dict on Windows.
--outfile=file
The file to which the maximum depths of the taxomomies should be output. If this option is not given, or if the file name is -, then output will be sent to the standard output.
--depthfile=file
The file to which the depth of every noun and verb synset should be sent.
--wps
The names of synsets in the output as "word#part_of_speech#sense" strings rather than as offsets.
--verbose
Be verbose.
--help
Show detailed help message.
--version
Show version information.
