Generalized Tuning of Distributional Word Vectors for Monolingual and Cross-Lingual Lexical Entailment

codogogo/glen ACL 2019

Lexical entailment (LE; also known as hyponymy-hypernymy or is-a relation) is a core asymmetric lexical relation that supports tasks like taxonomy induction and text generation.

Discriminative Topic Mining via Category-Name Guided Text Embedding

yumeng5/CatE 20 Aug 2019

We propose a new task, discriminative topic mining, which leverages a set of user-provided category names to mine discriminative topics from text corpora.

Neural Natural Language Inference Models Partially Embed Theories of Lexical Entailment and Negation

atticusg/MoNLI EMNLP (BlackboxNLP) 2020

We address whether neural models for Natural Language Inference (NLI) can learn the compositional interactions between lexical entailment and negation, using four methods: the behavioral evaluation methods of (1) challenge test sets and (2) systematic generalization tasks, and the structural evaluation methods of (3) probes and (4) interventions.

Mining Knowledge for Natural Language Inference from Wikipedia Categories

ZeweiChu/WikiNLI Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2020

Accurate lexical entailment (LE) and natural language inference (NLI) often require large quantities of costly annotations.

Continuous Entailment Patterns for Lexical Inference in Context

mnschmit/conan EMNLP 2021

If we allow for tokens outside the PLM's vocabulary, patterns can be adapted more flexibly to a PLM's idiosyncrasies.
