Distributional memory: A general framework for corpus-based semantics
Marco Baroni,Alessandro Lenci +1 more
TL;DR: The Distributional Memory approach is shown to be tenable despite the constraints imposed by its multi-purpose nature, and performs competitively against task-specific algorithms recently reported in the literature for the same tasks, and against several state-of-the-art methods.

How we BLESSed distributional semantic evaluation
Marco Baroni,Alessandro Lenci +1 more
TL;DR: BLESS contains a set of tuples instantiating different, explicitly typed semantic relations, plus a number of controlled random tuples, making it possible to assess the ability of a model to detect truly related word pairs, as well as to perform in-depth analyses of the types of semantic relations that a model favors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributional Models of Word Meaning
TL;DR: This review presents the state of the art in distributional semantics, focusing on its assets and limits as a model of meaning and as a method for semantic analysis.
Journal Article
Distributional semantics in linguistic and cognitive research
Alessandro Lenci,J. Littell +1 more
TL;DR: This work concludes that a general model of meaning can indeed be discerned behind the differences, a model that formulates specific hypotheses on the format of semantic representations, and on the way they are built and processed by the human mind.

Alessandro Lenci,Núria Bel,Federica Busa,Nicoletta Calzolari,Elisabetta Gola,Monica Monachini,Antoine Ogonowski,Ivonne Peters,Wim Peters,Nilda Ruimy,Marta Villegas,Marta Villegas,Antonio Zampolli +12 more
TL;DR: The project LE-SIMPLE is an innovative attempt of building harmonized syntactic-semantic lexicons for twelve European languages, aimed at use in different Human Language Technology applications.
