Can Large Language Models Compete with Specialized Models in Lexical Semantic Change Detection? Open

Frank D. Zamora-Reina, Felipe Bravo-Márquez, Dominik Schlechtweg, Nikolay Arefyev · 2025

In this paper, we present a comprehensive comparison between specialized Lexical Semantic Change Detection (LSCD) models and Large Language Models (LLMs) for the LSCD task. In addition to comparing models, we also investigate the role of a…

DWUG DE Sense: A data set of historical word sense annotations in German Open

Dominik Schlechtweg · 2024

This data collection contains a subset of DWUG DE word usage data annotated with classical word sense definitions (DWUG DE Sense, see data/*/judgments_senses.csv). From these annotations aggregated and cleaned sense labels were derived (la…

Sense through time: diachronic word sense annotations for word sense induction and Lexical Semantic Change Detection Open

Dominik Schlechtweg, Frank D. Zamora-Reina, Felipe Bravo-Márquez, Nikolay Arefyev · 2024

There has been extensive work on human word sense annotation, i.e., manually labeling word uses in natural texts according to their senses. Such labels were primarily created for the tasks of Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) and Word Sense …

Towards Automating Text Annotation: A Case Study on Semantic Proximity Annotation using GPT-4 Open

Sachin Yadav, Tejaswi Choppa, Dominik Schlechtweg · 2024

This paper explores using GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 to automate the data annotation process with automatic prompting techniques. The main aim of this paper is to reuse human annotation guidelines along with some annotated data to design automatic …

Presence or Absence: Are Unknown Word Usages in Dictionaries? Open

Xianghe Ma, Dominik Schlechtweg, Wei Zhao · 2024

There has been a surge of interest in computational modeling of semantic change. The foci of previous works are on detecting and interpreting word senses gained over time; however, it remains unclear whether the gained senses are covered b…

The LSCD Benchmark: a Testbed for Diachronic Word Meaning Tasks Open

Dominik Schlechtweg, Shafqat Mumtaz Virk, Nikolay Arefyev · 2024

Lexical Semantic Change Detection (LSCD) is a complex, lemma-level task, which is usually operationalized based on two subsequently applied usage-level tasks: First, Word-in-Context (WiC) labels are derived for pairs of usages. Then, these…

Enriching Word Usage Graphs with Cluster Definitions Open

Mariіa Fedorova, Andrey Kutuzov, Nikolay Arefyev, Dominik Schlechtweg · 2024

We present a dataset of word usage graphs (WUGs), where the existing WUGs for multiple languages are enriched with cluster labels functioning as sense definitions. They are generated from scratch by fine-tuned encoder-decoder language mode…
