Lexical Entailment

17 papers with code • 2 benchmarks • 5 datasets

Lexical Entailment is concerned with identifying the semantic relation, if any, holding between two words, as in (pigeon, hyponym, animal).

Hierarchical Density Order Embeddings

benathi/density-order-emb ICLR 2018

By representing words with probability densities rather than point vectors, probabilistic word embeddings can capture rich and interpretable semantic information and uncertainty.

TextAttack: A Framework for Adversarial Attacks, Data Augmentation, and Adversarial Training in NLP

QData/TextAttack EMNLP 2020

TextAttack also includes data augmentation and adversarial training modules for using components of adversarial attacks to improve model accuracy and robustness.

RussianSuperGLUE: A Russian Language Understanding Evaluation Benchmark

RussianNLP/RussianSuperGLUE EMNLP 2020

In this paper, we introduce an advanced Russian general language understanding evaluation benchmark -- RussianGLUE.

Experiments with Three Approaches to Recognizing Lexical Entailment

context-mover/HypEval 31 Jan 2014

Two general strategies for RLE have been proposed: One strategy is to manually construct an asymmetric similarity measure for context vectors (directional similarity) and another is to treat RLE as a problem of learning to recognize semantic relations using supervised machine learning techniques (relation classification).

Representing Meaning with a Combination of Logical and Distributional Models

ibeltagy/rrr CL 2016

In this paper, we focus on the three components of a practical system integrating logical and distributional models: 1) Parsing and task representation is the logic-based part where input problems are represented in probabilistic logic.

A Consolidated Open Knowledge Representation for Multiple Texts

vered1986/OKR WS 2017

We propose to move from Open Information Extraction (OIE) ahead to Open Knowledge Representation (OKR), aiming to represent information conveyed jointly in a set of texts in an open text-based manner.

Specialising Word Vectors for Lexical Entailment

nmrksic/lear 17 Oct 2017

We present LEAR (Lexical Entailment Attract-Repel), a novel post-processing method that transforms any input word vector space to emphasise the asymmetric relation of lexical entailment (LE), also known as the IS-A or hyponymy-hypernymy relation.

Scoring Lexical Entailment with a Supervised Directional Similarity Network

marekrei/sdsn ACL 2018

Experiments show excellent performance on scoring graded lexical entailment, raising the state-of-the-art on the HyperLex dataset by approximately 25%.

Specialising Word Vectors for Lexical Entailment

nmrksic/lear NAACL 2018

We present LEAR (Lexical Entailment Attract-Repel), a novel post-processing method that transforms any input word vector space to emphasise the asymmetric relation of lexical entailment (LE), also known as the IS-A or hyponymy-hypernymy relation.

SherLIiC: A Typed Event-Focused Lexical Inference Benchmark for Evaluating Natural Language Inference

mnschmit/SherLIiC ACL 2019

We present SherLIiC, a testbed for lexical inference in context (LIiC), consisting of 3985 manually annotated inference rule candidates (InfCands), accompanied by (i) ~960k unlabeled InfCands, and (ii) ~190k typed textual relations between Freebase entities extracted from the large entity-linked corpus ClueWeb09.
