How Much Do Encoder Models Know About Word Senses? (2025.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is a key task in Natural Language Processing (NLP) however, how well these models inherently disambiguate word senses remains uncertain. |
| Approach: | They evaluate several encoder-only PLMs across WordNet and ODE sense inventories to evaluate their ability to separate word senses without any task-specific fine-tuning. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms output layer on WordNet and ODE sense inventories by 15 percentage points. |
