The lexical semantics of adjective-noun phrases in the human brain. [PDF]
Hum Brain Mapp, 2019 As a person reads, the brain performs complex operations to create higher order semantic representations from individual words. While these steps are effortless for competent readers, we are only beginning to understand how the brain performs these ...

Lexical Semantics with Large Language Models: A Case Study of English “break”
Findings, 2023 Large neural language models (LLMs) can be powerful tools for research in lexical semantics. We illustrate this potential using the English verb “break”, which has numerous senses and appears in a wide range of syntactic frames. We show that LLMs capture
