Diachronic Usage Relatedness (DURel): A Framework for the Annotation of Lexical Semantic Change (N18-2)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing frameworks for evaluating lexical semantic change are limited . evaluation of lexicals is a major obstacle in the field of semantic change detection . |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that extends synchronic polysemy annotation to diachronic changes in lexical meaning to counteract lack of resources for evaluating computational models of lexiconal semantic change. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework exploits an intuitive notion of semantic relatedness and distinguishes between innovative and reductive meaning changes with high inter-annotator agreement. |
