Papers with metaphor recognition systems
An analysis of language models for metaphor recognition (2020.coling-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Metaphor recognition systems that are based on language models perform substantially worse on unconventional metaphors than on conventional ones. |
| Approach: | They conduct a linguistic analysis of recent metaphor recognition systems based on language models and a variant of BERT language models to examine their performance. |
| Outcome: | The proposed systems show that they can recognise unseen words if synonyms or morphological variations have been seen before, leading to enhanced generalisation beyond word sense disambiguation. |
