SuperSim: a test set for word similarity and relatedness in Swedish

Simon Hengchen, Nina Tahmasebi

Language models are notoriously difficult to evaluate. We release SuperSim, a large-scale similarity and relatedness test set for Swedish built with expert human judgments. The tes…

DWUG: A large Resource of Diachronic Word Usage Graphs in Four Languages

Dominik Schlechtweg, Nina Tahmasebi, Simon Hengchen +2

Word meaning is notoriously difficult to capture, both synchronically and diachronically. In this paper, we describe the creation of the largest resource of graded contextualized,…

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…

SemEval-2020 Task 1: Unsupervised Lexical Semantic Change Detection

Dominik Schlechtweg, Barbara McGillivray, Simon Hengchen +2

Lexical Semantic Change detection, i.e., the task of identifying words that change meaning over time, is a very active research area, with applications in NLP, lexicography, and li…

Time-Out: Temporal Referencing for Robust Modeling of Lexical Semantic Change

Haim Dubossarsky, Simon Hengchen, Nina Tahmasebi +1

State-of-the-art models of lexical semantic change detection suffer from noise stemming from vector space alignment. We have empirically tested the Temporal Referencing method for…

Named Entity Evolution Recognition on the Blogosphere

Helge Holzmann, Nina Tahmasebi, Thomas Risse

Advancements in technology and culture lead to changes in our language. These changes create a gap between the language known by users and the language stored in digital archives.…
