Relying on only a limited amount of\nsupervision from task-specific scores on a subset of the vocabulary, our\narchitecture is able to generalise and transform a general-purpose\ndistributional vector space to model the relation of lexical entailment.\nExperiments show excellent performance on scoring graded lexical entailment,\nraising the state-of-the-art on the HyperLex dataset by approximately 25%.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1805.09355v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.09355v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"scoring-lexical-entailment-with-a-supervised","repo_url":"https://github.com/marekrei/sdsn","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"lexical-entailment","task_name":"Lexical Entailment"},{"task_slug":"word-embeddings","task_name":"Word Embeddings"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1805.09355","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
