wn.validate

Wordnet lexicon validation.

This module is for checking whether the the contents of a lexicon are valid according to a series of checks. Those checks are:

Code	Message
E101	ID is not unique within the lexicon.
W201	Lexical entry has no senses.
W202	Redundant sense between lexical entry and synset.
W203	Redundant lexical entry with the same lemma and synset.
E204	Synset of sense is missing.
W301	Synset is empty (not associated with any lexical entries).
W302	ILI is repeated across synsets.
W303	Proposed ILI is missing a definition.
W304	Existing ILI has a spurious definition.
E401	Relation target is missing or invalid.
W402	Relation type is invalid for the source and target.
W403	Redundant relation between source and target.
W404	Reverse relation is missing.
W501	Synset's part-of-speech is different from its hypernym's.
W502	Relation is a self-loop.

wn.validate.validate(lex, select=('E', 'W'), progress_handler=<class 'wn.util.ProgressBar'>)

Check lex for validity and return a report of the results.

The select argument is a sequence of check codes (e.g., E101) or categories (E or W).

The progress_handler parameter takes a subclass of wn.util.ProgressHandler. An instance of the class will be created, used, and closed by this function.

Parameters

• lex (Union[wn.lmf.Lexicon, wn.lmf.LexiconExtension]) –

• select (Sequence[str]) –

• progress_handler (Optional[Type[wn.util.ProgressHandler]]) –

Return type

Dict[str, Dict[str, Union[str, Dict[str, Dict]]]]
