LSCDiscovery: A shared task on semantic change discovery and detection in Spanish

Frank D. Zamora-Reina, Felipe Bravo-Marquez, Dominik Schlechtweg

We present the first shared task on semantic change discovery and detection in Spanish and create the first dataset of Spanish words manually annotated for semantic change using th…

More than just Frequency? Demasking Unsupervised Hypernymy Prediction Methods

Thomas Bott, Dominik Schlechtweg, Sabine Schulte im Walde

This paper presents a comparison of unsupervised methods of hypernymy prediction (i.e., to predict which word in a pair of words such as fish-cod is the hypernym and which the hypo…

Explaining and Improving BERT Performance on Lexical Semantic Change Detection

Severin Laicher, Sinan Kurtyigit, Dominik Schlechtweg +2

Type- and token-based embedding architectures are still competing in lexical semantic change detection. The recent success of type-based models in SemEval-2020 Task 1 has raised th…

Effects of Pre- and Post-Processing on type-based Embeddings in Lexical Semantic Change Detection

Jens Kaiser, Sinan Kurtyigit, Serge Kotchourko +1

Lexical semantic change detection is a new and innovative research field. The optimal fine-tuning of models including pre- and post-processing is largely unclear. We optimize exist…

Challenges for Computational Lexical Semantic Change

Simon Hengchen, Nina Tahmasebi, Dominik Schlechtweg +1

The computational study of lexical semantic change (LSC) has taken off in the past few years and we are seeing increasing interest in the field, from both computational sciences an…
