论文摘要

词汇语义理论在提倡单词的含义表示为推理图,特征映射或矢量空间的情况下有所不同,因此提出了一个问题:这些方法之一在适当地代表词汇语义方面优于其他方法吗?还是在其非对手中:是否有统一的词汇语义说明这些方法无缝地出现为核心语义知识基础(不同)方面的(部分)渲染? 在本文中,我们通过许多实验为这些研究问题做出了贡献,这些实验会系统地探究不同的词汇语义理论的认知合理性和技术实用性的水平。 从这些实验中获得的经验发现提出了我们对词汇语义的见解,因为基于特征的方法比其他方法优越,并且可以说,也可以使我们更接近找到上述研究问题的答案。

Lexical semantics theories differ in advocating that the meaning of words is represented as an inference graph, a feature mapping or a vector space, thus raising the question: is it the case that one of these approaches is superior to the others in representing lexical semantics appropriately? Or in its non antagonistic counterpart: could there be a unified account of lexical semantics where these approaches seamlessly emerge as (partial) renderings of (different) aspects of a core semantic knowledge base? In this paper, we contribute to these research questions with a number of experiments that systematically probe different lexical semantics theories for their levels of cognitive plausibility and of technological usefulness. The empirical findings obtained from these experiments advance our insight on lexical semantics as the feature-based approach emerges as superior to the other ones, and arguably also move us closer to finding answers to the research questions above.
