WordNet is a powerful lexical reference system that combines aspects of
dictionaries and thesauri with current psycholinguistic theories of
human lexical memory. It is produced by the Cognitive Science Laboratory
at Princeton University, under the direction of Professor George Miller.
In WordNet, words are defined and grouped into various related sets of
synonyms. Not only is the system valuable to the casual user as a
powerful thesaurus and dictionary, but also to the researcher as one of
the few freely available, lexical databases. WordNet is available via an
on-line interface and also as easy-to-compile C source code for Unix.
