Automating Lexical Graph Construction with Large Language Models: A Scalable Approach to Japanese Multi-Relation Lexical Networks

Abstract

In recent advancements within natural language processing (NLP), lexical networks play a crucial role in representing semantic relationships between words, enhancing applications from word sense disambiguation to educational tools. Traditional methods for constructing lexical networks, however, are resource-intensive, relying heavily on expert lexicographers. Leveraging GPT-4o, a large language model (LLM), our study presents an automated, scalable approach to creating multi-relational Japanese lexical networks for the general Japanese language. This study builds on previous methods of integrating synonyms but extends to other relations such as hyponymy, hypernymy, meronymy, and holonomy. Using a combination of structured prompts and graph-based data storage, the model extracts detailed lexical relationships, which are then systematically validated and encoded. Results reveal a substantial expansion in network size, with over 155,000 nodes and 700,000 edges, enriching Japanese lexical associations with nuanced hierarchical and associative layers. Comparisons with WordNet show substantial alignment in relation types, particularly with soft matching, underscoring the model’s efficacy in reflecting the multifaceted nature of lexical semantics. This work contributes a versatile framework for constructing expansive lexical resources that hold promises for enhancing NLP tasks and educational applications across various languages and domains.
