RUSSE (Russian Words in Context (based on RUSSE))

Introduced by Alexander Panchenko et al. in RUSSE'2018: A Shared Task on Word Sense Induction for the Russian Language15 Mar 2018 archive 2025-07-28

WiC: The Word-in-Context Dataset A reliable benchmark for the evaluation of context-sensitive word embeddings.

Depending on its context, an ambiguous word can refer to multiple, potentially unrelated, meanings. Mainstream static word embeddings, such as Word2vec and GloVe, are unable to reflect this dynamic semantic nature. Contextualised word embeddings are an attempt at addressing this limitation by computing dynamic representations for words which can adapt based on context.

Russian SuperGLUE task borrows original data from the Russe project, Word Sense Induction and Disambiguation shared task (2018)

Task Type

Reading Comprehension. Binary Classification: true/false

Example
{
  "idx" : 8,
  "word" : "дорожка",
  "sentence1" : "Бурые ковровые дорожки заглушали шаги",
  "sentence2" : "Приятели решили выпить на дорожку в местном баре",
  "start1" : 15,
  "end1" : 23,
  "start2" : 26,
  "end2" : 34,
  "label" : false,
  "gold_sense1" : 1,
  "gold_sense2" : 2
}
How did we collect data?

All text examples were collected from Russe original dataset, already collected by Russian Semantic Evaluation at ACL SIGSLAV. Human assessment was carried out on Yandex.Toloka.

In version 2, we have manually collected in the same format testset.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

2 shown of 2 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 8. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
