Document Structure Measure for Hypernym discovery (1811.12728v1)
Published 30 Nov 2018 in cs.CL
Abstract: Hypernym discovery is the problem of finding terms that have is-a relationship with a given term. We introduce a new context type, and a relatedness measure to differentiate hypernyms from other types of semantic relationships. Our Document Structure measure is based on hierarchical position of terms in a document, and their presence or otherwise in definition text. This measure quantifies the document structure using multiple attributes, and classes of weighted distance functions.
