SenseClusters: Unsupervised Clustering and Labeling of Similar Contexts
نویسندگان
چکیده
SenseClusters is a freely available system that identifies similar contexts in text. It relies on lexical features to build first and second order representations of contexts, which are then clustered using unsupervised methods. It was originally developed to discriminate among contexts centered around a given target word, but can now be applied more generally. It also supports methods that create descriptive and discriminating labels for the discovered clusters.

Identifying Similar Words and Contexts in Natural Language with SenseClusters
SenseClusters is a freely available intelligent system that clusters together similar contexts in natural language text. Thereafter it assigns identifying labels to these clusters based on their content. It is a purely unsupervised approach that is language independent, and uses no knowledge other than what is available in raw un-annotated corpora. In addition to clustering similar contexts, it...
متن کاملName Discrimination and Email Clustering using Unsupervised Clustering and Labeling of Similar Contexts
In this paper, we apply an unsupervised word sense discrimination technique based on clustering similar contexts (Purandare and Pedersen, 2004) to the problems of name discrimination and email clustering. Names of people, places, and organizations are not always unique. This can create a problem when we refer to or seek out information about such entities. When this occurs in written text, we s...
متن کاملSenseClusters - Finding Clusters that Represent Word Senses
SenseClusters is a freely available word sense discrimination system that takes a purely unsupervised clustering approach. It uses no knowledge other than what is available in a raw unstructured corpus, and clusters instances of a given target word based only on their mutual contextual similarities. It is a complete system that provides support for feature selection from large corpora, several ...
متن کاملDistributed Representations for Unsupervised Semantic Role Labeling
We present a new approach for unsupervised semantic role labeling that leverages distributed representations. We induce embeddings to represent a predicate, its arguments and their complex interdependence. Argument embeddings are learned from surrounding contexts involving the predicate and neighboring arguments, while predicate embeddings are learned from argument contexts. The induced represe...
متن کاملAutomatic Cluster Stopping with Criterion Functions and the Gap Statistic
SenseClusters is a freely available system that clusters similar contexts. It can be applied to a wide range of problems, although here we focus on word sense and name discrimination. It supports several different measures for automatically determining the number of clusters in which a collection of contexts should be grouped. These can be used to discover the number of senses in which a word i...
