[Corpora-List] Dictionary network analysis

[Robert Parks]

Greetings:
I'm looking for pointers to research on dictionaries as semantic 
networks. In particular, I'm interested in applying the pagerank 
algorithm to the dictionary. I want to find the central words (words 
used in definitions of important words), and central concepts (words 
that have important words as synonyms or similars).  Would anyone be 
able to point me toward relevant research? I'm also interested in 
collaborating with someone familiar with network analysis.
Thanks,
Bob Parks
