Identification of sense selection in regular polysemy using shallow features
نویسندگان
چکیده
The following work describes a method to automatically classify the sense selection of the complex type Location/Organization –which depends on regular polysemy– using shallow features, as well as a way to increase the volume of sense-selection gold standards by using monosemous data as filler. The classifier results show that grammatical features are the most relevant cues for the identification of sense selection in this instance of regular polysemy.

Regular polysemy: from sense vectors to sense patterns
Regular polysemy was extensively investigated in lexical semantics, but this phenomenon has been very little studied in distributional semantics. We propose a model for regular polysemy detection that is based on sense vectors and allows to work directly with senses in semantic vector space. Our method is able to detect polysemous words that have the same regular sense alternation as in a given...
متن کاملIncremental Knowledge Acquisition from WordNet and EuroWordNet
This paper describes the process of the creation and extraction of implicit knowledge from WordNet (Fellbaum, 1998) and EuroWordNet (Vossen, 1998). This knowledge is an extension of the explicit knowledge structures already provided by the wordnets in the form of synsets and semantic relations, and is contained both within (Euro)WordNet’s hierarchical structure and the glosses that are associat...
متن کاملRules, Radical Pragmatics and Restrictions on Regular Polysemy
Although regular polysemy [e.g. producer for product (John read Dickens) or container for contents (John drank the bottle)] has been extensively studied, there has been little work on why certain polysemy patterns are more acceptable than others. We take an empirical approach to the question, in particular evaluating an account based on rules against a gradient account of polysemy that is based...
متن کاملGraph-Based, Supervised Machine Learning Approach to (Irregular) Polysemy in WordNet
This paper presents a supervised machine learning approach that aims at annotating those homograph word forms in WordNet that share some common meaning and can hence be thought of as belonging to a polysemous word. Using different graph-based measures, a set of features is selected, and a random forest model is trained and evaluated. The results are compared to other features used for polysemy ...
متن کاملAnnotation of regular polysemy and underspecification
We present the result of an annotation task on regular polysemy for a series of semantic classes or dot types in English, Danish and Spanish. This article describes the annotation process, the results in terms of inter-encoder agreement, and the sense distributions obtained with two methods: majority voting with a theory-compliant backoff strategy, and MACE, an unsupervised system to choose the...
