Aspectuality Across Genre: A Distributional Semantics Approach [PDF]
International Conference on Computational Linguistics, 2020 The interpretation of the lexical aspect of verbs in English plays a crucial role in tasks such as recognizing textual entailment and learning discourse-level inferences. We show that two elementary dimensions of aspectual class, states vs.

What are the Goals of Distributional Semantics? [PDF]
Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2020 Distributional semantic models have become a mainstay in NLP, providing useful features for downstream tasks. However, assessing long-term progress requires explicit long-term goals.

Coordination in Categorical Compositional Distributional Semantics [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 An open problem with categorical compositional distributional semantics is the representation of words that are considered semantically vacuous from a distributional perspective, such as determiners, prepositions, relative pronouns or coordinators.

Incremental Composition in Distributional Semantics
Journal of Logic, Language and Information, 2021 Despite the incremental nature of Dynamic Syntax (DS), the semantic grounding of it remains that of predicate logic, itself grounded in set theory, so is poorly suited to expressing the rampantly context-relative nature of word meaning, and related ...

Toward an Integrative Approach for Making Sense Distinctions
Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2022 Word senses are the fundamental unit of description in lexicography, yet it is rarely the case that different dictionaries reach any agreement on the number and definition of senses in a language.

Distributional Semantics in Use [PDF]
Proceedings of the First Workshop on Linking Computational Models of Lexical, Sentential and Discourse-level Semantics, 2015 In this position paper we argue that an adequate semantic model must account for language in use, taking into account how discourse context affects the meaning of words and larger linguistic units. Distributional semantic models are very attractive models of meaning mainly because they capture conceptual aspects and are automatically induced from ...

A Corpus-based Toy Model for DisCoCat [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 The categorical compositional distributional (DisCoCat) model of meaning rigorously connects distributional semantics and pregroup grammars, and has found a variety of applications in computational linguistics.

Distributional Semantics and Linguistic Theory [PDF]
Annual Review of Linguistics, 2019 Distributional semantics provides multidimensional, graded, empirically induced word representations that successfully capture many aspects of meaning in natural languages, as shown by a large body of research in computational linguistics; yet, its ...
