Perceptual Inference Through Global Lexical Similarity

Topics in Cognitive Science, 2012
AbstractThe literature contains a disconnect between accounts of how humans learn lexical semantic representations for words. Theories generally propose that lexical semantics are learned either through perceptual experience or through exposure to regularities in language. We propose here a model to integrate these two information sources. Specifically,

Lexical similarity using fuzzy Euclidean distance

2014 International Conference on Engineering and Technology (ICET), 2014
Knowledge exaction and text representation are considered as the main concepts concerning organizations nowadays. The estimation of the semantic similarity between words provides a valuable method to enable the understanding of texts. In the field of biomedical domains, using Ontologies have been very effective due to their scalability and efficiency ...

Using Embedding-Based Similarities to Improve Lexical Resources

Lobachevskii Journal of Mathematics, 2021
In this paper we discuss the usefulness of applying semi-automatic checking procedures to existing thesauri for natural language processing—large manually-created lexical-semantic resources. The procedure is based on computation of word vector representations and word semantic similarities on large text collections.

Directional distributional similarity for lexical inference

Natural Language Engineering, 2010
AbstractDistributional word similarity is most commonly perceived as a symmetric relation. Yet, directional relations are abundant in lexical semantics and in many Natural Language Processing (NLP) settings that require lexical inference, making symmetric similarity measures less suitable for their identification.

Quranic Concepts Similarity Based on Lexical Database

2018 6th International Conference on Information and Communication Technology (ICoICT), 2018
We conducted a semantic similarity study of semantic concepts in the context of the Holy Book Quran. Semantic similarity examines the degree of likeness and shared common properties of two concepts. For example, the Quranic concept of Allah and God will result in a high score of semantic similarity, whereas hell and paradise will yield in a low score ...

Perceptual similarity co-existing with lexical dissimilarity

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2003
The extreme case of perceptual similarity is indiscriminability, as when two second-language phonemes map to a single native category. An example is the English had-head vowel contrast for Dutch listeners; Dutch has just one such central vowel, transcribed [E].
