Recent years have witnessed the massive exploitation of collaborative, semi-structured information as the ideal middle ground between high-quality, fully-structured resources and the larger amount of cheaper (but noisy) unstructured text (Hovy et al., 2013) . Collaborative projects, like Freebase (Bollacker et al., 2008) and Wikidata (Vrande\u010di\u0107, 2012) , have been being developed for many years and are continuously being improved. A great deal of research also focuses on enriching available semi-structured resources, most notably Wikipedia, thereby creating taxonomies (Ponzetto and Strube, 2011; Flati et al., 2014) , ontologies (Mahdisoltani et al., 2015) and semantic networks (Navigli and Ponzetto, 2012; Nastase and Strube, 2013) . These solutions, however, 1 http://lcl.uniroma1.it/defie are inherently constrained to small and often prespecified sets of relations. A more radical approach is adopted in systems like TEXTRUNNER (Etzioni et al., 2008) and REVERB (Fader et al., 2011) , which developed from the Open Information Extraction (OIE) paradigm (Etzioni et al., 2008) and focused on the unconstrained extraction of a large number of relations from massive unstructured corpora. Ultimately, all these endeavors were geared towards addressing the knowledge acquisition problem and tackling long-standing challenges in the field, such as Machine Reading (Mitchell, 2005) .",

However, these issues have not yet been addressed in their entirety. Relation strings are still bound to surface text, lacking actual semantic content. Furthermore, most OIE systems do not have a clear and unified ontological structure and require additional processing steps, such as statistical inference mappings (Dutta et al., 2014) , graphbased alignments of relational phrases (Grycner and Weikum, 2014) , or knowledge base unification procedures (Delli Bovi et al., 2015) , in order for their potential to be exploitable in real applications.",

The aim is then to extract as much information as possible by unifying syntactic analysis and state-of-the-art disambiguation and entity linking. Using this strategy, from an input corpus of textual definitions (short and concise descriptions of a given concept or entity) we are able to harvest fully disambiguated relation instances on a large scale, and integrate them automatically into a high-quality taxonomy of semantic relations. As a result a large knowledge base is produced that shows competitive accuracy and coverage against state-of-the-art OIE systems based on much larger corpora.

Semantic information from the sense mappings S d can be incorporated directly in the vertices of G d by attaching available matches between words and senses to the corresponding vertices. Dependency graphs, however, encode dependencies solely on a word basis, while our sense mappings may include multi-word expressions (e.g. Pink Floyd 1 bn ). In order to extract consistent information, subsets of vertices referring to the same concept or entity are merged to a single semantic node, which replaces the subgraph covered in the original dependency structure. Consider the example in Figure 1 : an entity like Pink Floyd 1 bn covers two distinct and connected vertices in the dependency graph G d , one for the noun Floyd and one for its modifier Pink. In the actual semantics of the sentence, as encoded in G sem d (Figure 1c ), these two vertices are merged to a single node referring to the entity Pink Floyd 1 bn (the English rock band), instead of being assigned individual word interpretations.",

Then,n i is compared with n j and, ifn i = n j , we assume that the relation r j is a generalization of r i (Figure 3b ). Input. The input corpus used for the relation extraction procedure is the full set of English textual definitions in BabelNet 2.5 (Navigli and Ponzetto, 2012) . 4 In fact, any set of textual definitions can be provided as input to DEFIE, ranging from existing dictionaries (like WordNet or Wiktionary) to the set of first sentences of Wikipedia articles. 5 As it is a merger for various different resources of this kind, BabelNet provides a large heterogeneous set comprising definitions from WordNet, Wikipedia, Wiktionary, Wikidata and OmegaWiki. To the best of our knowledge, this set constitutes the largest available corpus of definitional knowledge. We therefore worked on a total of 4,357,327 textual definitions from the English synsets of BabelNet's knowledge base.

After the extraction process, our knowledge base comprises 255,881 distinct semantic relations, 94% of which also have disambiguated content words in their patterns. DEFIE extracts a considerably larger amount of relation instances compared to similar approaches, despite the much smaller amount of text used. For example, we managed to harvest over 5 million relation instances more than PATTY, using a much smaller corpus (sin-gle sentences as opposed to full Wikipedia articles) and generating a number of distinct relations that was six times less than PATTY's. As a result, we obtained an average number of extractions that was substantially higher than those of our OIE competitors. This suggests that DEFIE is able to exploit the nature of textual definitions effectively and generalize over relation patterns.

We first assessed the quality and the semantic consistency of our relations using manual evaluation. We ranked our relations according to their score (Section 3) and then created two samples (of size 100 and 250 respectively) of the top scoring relations. In order to evaluate the long tail of less confident relations, we created another two samples of the same size with randomly extracted relations. We presented these samples to our human judges, accompanying each relation with a set of 50 argument pairs and the corresponding textual definitions from BabelNet. For each item in the sample we asked whether it represented a meaningful relation and whether the extracted argument pairs were consistent with this relation and the corresponding definitions. If the answer was positive, the relation was considered as correct. Finally we estimated the overall precision of the sample as the proportion of correct items. Results are reported in Table 3 and compared to those obtained by our closest competitor, PATTY, in the setting of Section 5. In PATTY the confidence of a given pattern was estimated from its statistical strength (Nakashole et al., 2012). As shown in Table 3 , DEFIE achieved a comparable level of accuracy in every sample. An error analysis identified most errors as related to the vagueness of some short and general patterns, e.g. X take Y, X make Y. Others were related to parsing (e.g. in labeling the head word of complex noun phrases) or disambiguation. In addition, we used the same samples to estimate the novelty of the extracted information in comparison to currently available resources. We examined each correct relation pattern and looked manually for an equivalent relation in the knowledge bases Table 4 for both the top 100 sample and the random sample. The high proportion of relations not appearing in existing resources (especially across the random samples) suggests that DEFIE is capable of discovering information not obtainable from available knowledge bases, including very specific relations (X is blizzard in Y, X is Mayan language spoken by Y, X is governmentowned corporation in Y), as well as general but unusual ones (X used by writer of Y).",

In BabelNet's semantic network, nodes representing concepts and entities are only connected via lexicograhic relationships from WordNet (hypernymy, meronymy, etc.) or unlabeled edges derived from Wikipedia hyperlinks. Our extraction algorithm has the potential to provide useful information to both augment unlabeled edges with labels and explicit semantic content, and create additional connections based on semantic relations. Examples are shown in We carried out a preliminary analysis over all disambiguated relations with at least 10 extracted instances. For each relation pattern r, we first examined the concept pairs associated with its type signatures and looked in BabelNet for an unlabeled edge connecting the pair. Then we examined the whole set of extracted relation instances in R and looked in BabelNet for an unlabeled edge connecting the arguments a i and a j . Results in Table 16 show that only 27.7% of the concept pairs representing relation type signatures are connected in BabelNet, and most of these connections are unlabeled. By the same token, more than 4 million distinct argument pairs (53.5%) do not share any edge in the semantic network and, among those that do, less than 14% have a labeled relationship. These proportions suggest that our relations provide a potential enrichment of the underlying knowledge base in terms of both connectivity and labeling of existing edges. In BabelNet, our case study, cross-resource mappings might also propagate this information across other knowledge bases and rephrase semantic relations in terms of, e.g., automatically generated Wikipedia hyperlinks.",

The first systems employed statistical techniques and relied heavily on information redundancy. Then, as soon as semistructured resources came into play (Hovy et al., 2013) , researchers started developing learning systems based on self-supervision (Wu and Weld, 2007) and distant supervision (Mintz et al., 2009; Krause et al., 2012) . Crucial issues in distant supervision, like noisy training data, have been addressed in various ways: probabilistic graphical models (Riedel et al., 2010; Hoffmann et al., 2011) , sophisticated multi-instance learning algorithms (Surdeanu et al., 2012) , matrix factorization techniques (Riedel et al., 2013) , labeled data infusion (Pershina et al., 2014) or crowd-based human computing (Kondreddi et al., 2014) . A different strategy consists of moving from open text extraction to more constrained settings. For instance, the KNOWLEDGE VAULT (Dong et al., 2014) combines Web-scale extraction with prior knowledge from existing knowledge bases; BIPER-PEDIA relies on schema-level attributes from the query stream in order to create an ontology of class-attribute pairs; RENOUN (Yahya et al., 2014) in turn exploits BIPERPEDIA to extract facts expressed as noun phrases. DEFIE focuses, instead, on smaller and denser corpora of prescriptive knowledge. Although early works, such as MindNet (Richardson et al., 1998) , had already highlighted the potential of textual definitions for extracting reliable semantic information, no OIE approach to the best of our knowledge has exploited definitional data to extract and disambiguate a large knowledge base of semantic relations. The direction of most papers (especially in the recent OIE literature) seems rather the opposite, namely, to target Web-scale corpora. In contrast, we manage to extract a large amount of high-quality information by combining an OIE unsupervised approach with definitional data.",

Syntactic dependencies are used to construct general relation patterns (Nakashole et al., 2012) , or to improve the quality of surface pattern realizations . Phenomena like synonymy and polysemy have been addressed with kernel-based similarity measures and soft clustering techniques (Min et al., 2012; , or exploiting the semantic types of relation arguments (Nakashole et al., 2012; Moro and Navigli, 2012) . An appropriate modeling of semantic types (e.g. selectional preferences) constitutes a line of research by itself, rooted in earlier works like (Resnik, 1996) and focused on either class-based (Clark and Weir, 2002) , or similarity-based (Erk, 2007) , approaches. However, these methods are used to model the semantics of verbs rather than arbitrary patterns. More recently some strategies based on topic modeling have been proposed, either to infer latent relation semantic types from OIE relations (Ritter et al., 2010) , or to directly learn an ontological structure from a starting set of relation instances (Movshovitz-Attias and Cohen, 2015) . However, the knowledge generated is often hard to interpret and integrate with existing knowledge bases without human intervention (Ritter et al., 2010) . In this respect, the semantic predicates proposed by Flati and Navigli (2013) seem to be more promising.",

By incorporating explicit semantic content in our relation patterns, not only do we make relations less ambiguous, but we also abstract away from specific lexicalizations of the content words and merge together many patterns conveying the same semantics. Rather than using plain dependencies we also inject explicit semantic content into the dependency graph to generate a unified syntactic-semantic representation. Previous works used similar semantic graph representations to produce filtering rules for relation extraction, but they required a starting set of relation patterns and did not exploit syntactic information. A joint approach of syntacticsemantic analysis of text was used in works such as (Lao et al., 2012) , but they addressed a substantially different task (inference for knowledge base completion) and assumed a radically different setting, with a predefined starting set of semantic relations from a given knowledge base. As we enforce an OIE approach, we do not have such requirements and directly process the input text via parsing and disambiguation. This enables DEFIE to generate relations already integrated with resources like WordNet and Wikipedia, without additional alignment steps (Grycner and Weikum, 2014) , or semantic type propagations . As shown in Section 6.3, explicit semantic content within relation patterns underpins a rich and high-quality relation taxonomy, whereas generalization in (Nakashole et al., 2012) is limited to support set inclusion and leads to sparser and less accurate results.",

DEFIE extracts knowledge on a large scale, reducing data sparsity and disambiguating both arguments and relation patterns at the same time. Unlike previous semantically-enhanced approaches, mostly relying on the semantics of argument types, DEFIE is able to semantify relation phrases as well, by providing explicit links to the underlying knowledge base. We leveraged an input corpus of 4.3 million definitions and extracted over 20 million relation instances, with more than 250,000 distinct relations and almost 2.4 million concepts and entities involved. From these relations we automatically constructed a highquality relation taxonomy by exploiting the explicit semantic content of the relation patterns. In the resulting knowledge base concepts and entities are linked to existing resources, such as WordNet and Wikipedia, via the BabelNet semantic network. We evaluated DEFIE in terms of precision, coverage, novelty of information in comparison to existing resources and quality of disambiguation, and we compared our relation taxonomy against state-of-the-art systems obtaining highly competitive results.",

In contrast to our competitors, where syntactic constraints are necessary in order to keep precision high when dealing with noisy data, DEFIE shows comparable (or greater) performances by exploiting a dense, noise-free definitional setting. DE-FIE generates a large knowledge base, in line with collaboratively-built resources and state-of-the-art OIE systems, but uses a much smaller amount of input data: our corpus of definitions comprises less than 83 million tokens overall, while other OIE systems exploit massive corpora like Wikipedia (typically more than 1.5 billion tokens), ClueWeb (more than 33 billion tokens), or the Web itself. Furthermore, our semantic analysis based on Babelfy enables the discovery of semantic connections between both general concepts and named entities, with the potential to enrich existing structured and semi-structured resources, as we showed in a preliminary study on BabelNet (cf. Section 6.7).",

Fi-nally, another future perspective is to leverage the increasingly large variety of multilingual resources, like BabelNet, and move towards the modeling of language-independent relations.",
