Lexicalized Systematic Polysemy in WordNet

by Wim Peters, Ivonne Peters - Proceedings of the 2nd international conference on Language Resources and Evaluation , 2000
"... This paper describes an attempt to gain more insight into the mechanisms that underlie lexicalised systematic polysemy. This phenomenon is interpreted as systematic sense combinations that are valid for more than one word. The hierarchical structure of WordNet is exploited to create a working defini ..."

Tree-cut and A Lexicon based on Systematic Polysemy

by Noriko Tomuro - In Proceedings of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics , 2001
"... This paper describes a lexicon organized around systematic polysemy: a set of word senses that are related in systematic and predictable ways. The lexicon is derived by a fully automatic extraction method which utilizes a clustering technique called tree-cut. We compare our lexicon to WordNet cousi ..."

The Generative Lexicon

by James Pustejovsky - Computational Linguistics , 1991
"... this paper, I will discuss four major topics relating to current research in lexical semantics: methodology, descriptive coverage, adequacy of the representation, and the computational usefulness of representations. In addressing these issues, I will discuss what I think are some of the central prob ..."

semantic expressions. I develop a theory of Qualia Structure, a representation language for lexical items, which renders much lexical ambiguity in the lexicon unnecessary, while still explaining the systematic polysemy that words carry. Finally, I discuss how individual lexical structures can be integrated

Semi-Productive Polysemy and Sense Extension

by Ann Copestake, Ted Briscoe - Journal of Semantics , 1995
"... In this paper we discuss various aspects of systematic or conventional polysemy and their formal treatment within an implemented constraint based approach to linguistic representation. We distinguish between two classes of systematic polysemy: constructional polysemy, where a single sense assigned t ..."

CoreLex: An Ontology of Systematic Polysemous Classes

by Paul Buitelaar - In Proceedings of FOIS98, International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems , 1998
"... . This paper is concerned with a unified approach to the systematic polysemy and underspecification of nouns. Systematic polysemy -- senses that are systematically related and therefore predictable over classes of lexical items -- is fundamentally different from homonymy -- senses that are unrelated ..."
