A new corpus annotation framework for Latin diachronic lexical semantics
Journal of Latin Linguistics, 2022 We present a new corpus-based resource and methodology for the annotation of Latin lexical semantics, consisting of 2,399 annotated passages of 40 lemmas from the Latin diachronic corpus LatinISE. We also describe how the annotation was designed, analyse

The lexical and formal semantics of distributivity
Glossa, 2021 Some predicates are distributive (true of each member of a plural subject: if two people smile, they each do). Others are nondistributive (if two people meet, they do so jointly rather than individually), or go both ways: if two people open a door ...

Scientific Reports, 2021 An essential aspect of human communication is the ability to access and retrieve information from ones’ ‘mental lexicon’. This lexical access activates phonological and semantic components of concepts, yet the question whether and how these two ...

Comparative Probing of Lexical Semantics Theories for Cognitive Plausibility and Technological Usefulness [PDF]
International Conference on Computational Linguistics, 2020 Lexical semantics theories differ in advocating that the meaning of words is represented as an inference graph, a feature mapping or a cooccurrence vector, thus raising the question: is it the case that one of these approaches is superior to the others ...

Always Keep your Target in Mind: Studying Semantics and Improving Performance of Neural Lexical Substitution [PDF]
International Conference on Computational Linguistics, 2020 Lexical substitution, i.e. generation of plausible words that can replace a particular target word in a given context, is an extremely powerful technology that can be used as a backbone of various NLP applications, including word sense induction and ...

DIACR-Ita @ EVALITA2020: Overview of the EVALITA2020 Diachronic Lexical Semantics (DIACR-Ita) Task
International Workshop on Evaluation of Natural Language and Speech Tools for Italian, 2020 This paper describes the first edition of the “Diachronic Lexical Seman-tics” (DIACR-Ita) task at the EVALITA2020 campaign. The task challenges participants to develop systems that can automatically detect if a given word has changed its meaning over ...
