Now, It’s Personal : The Need for Personalized Word Sense Disambiguation

no code implementations RANLP 2021 Milton King, Paul Cook

We propose a novel WSD dataset and show that personalizing a WSD system with knowledge of an author’s sense distributions or predominant senses can greatly increase its performance.

Evaluating Approaches to Personalizing Language Models

no code implementations LREC 2020 Milton King, Paul Cook

In this work, we consider the problem of personalizing language models, that is, building language models that are tailored to the writing style of an individual.

UNBNLP at SemEval-2019 Task 5 and 6: Using Language Models to Detect Hate Speech and Offensive Language

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2019 Ali Hakimi Parizi, Milton King, Paul Cook

In this paper we apply a range of approaches to language modeling {--} including word-level n-gram and neural language models, and character-level neural language models {--} to the problem of detecting hate speech and offensive language.

General Classification Language Modelling +2

Leveraging distributed representations and lexico-syntactic fixedness for token-level prediction of the idiomaticity of English verb-noun combinations

no code implementations ACL 2018 Milton King, Paul Cook

In this paper we propose and evaluate models for classifying VNC usages as idiomatic or literal, based on a variety of approaches to forming distributed representations.

UNBNLP at SemEval-2018 Task 10: Evaluating unsupervised approaches to capturing discriminative attributes

no code implementations SEMEVAL 2018 Milton King, Ali Hakimi Parizi, Paul Cook

In this paper we present three unsupervised models for capturing discriminative attributes based on information from word embeddings, WordNet, and sentence-level word co-occurrence frequency.

Semantic Textual Similarity Sentence +1

Supervised and unsupervised approaches to measuring usage similarity

no code implementations WS 2017 Milton King, Paul Cook

Usage similarity (USim) is an approach to determining word meaning in context that does not rely on a sense inventory.
