ContrastWSD: Enhancing Metaphor Detection with Word Sense Disambiguation Following the Metaphor Identification Procedure (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for identifying metaphoric expressions in text relied on manual effort to identify the basic and contextual meanings of words. |
| Approach: | They propose a model that integrates the Metaphor Identification Procedure (MIP) and Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) to extract and contrast the contextual meaning with the basic meaning of a word to determine whether it is used metaphorically in a sentence. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms methods that rely on embeddings or integrate only basic definitions and other external knowledge. |
