We can relax that criteria to match two concepts when a third concept C which subsumes C1 and C2 has a high enough degree of informativeness (Resnik, 1995) . The concept hierarchy can be useful in many cases, but it is generated from the dictionary and might not be complete enough to find all similar concepts.
