Hypernym Discovery

7 papers with code • 3 benchmarks • 1 datasets

Given a corpus and a target term (hyponym), the task of hypernym discovery consists of extracting a set of its most appropriate hypernyms from the corpus. For example, for the input word “dog”, some valid hypernyms would be “canine”, “mammal” or “animal”.
