Abstract

Semantic similarity is the measure of similarity in the meanings represented by different terms or sentences. There are many different ways in which a statement can be expressed by using various words conveying the same meaning. Also, a single word can mean a lot of different things in various contexts. Hence, semantic similarity plays a major role in data processing, data mining and artificial intelligence applications. In order to compute semantic similarity, many different methods have been proposed by various researchers. This paper makes a review of the various measures for computation of semantic similarity.
