"abstract": "In this paper, we introduce a hybrid method to associate English collocations with sense class members chosen from WordNet. Our combinational approach includes a learning-based method, a paraphrase-based method and a sense frequency ranking method. At training time, a set of collocations with their tagged senses is prepared. We use the sentence information extracted from a large corpus and cross-lingual information to train a learning-based model. At run time, the corresponding senses of an input collocation will be decided via majority voting. The three outcomes participated in voting are as follows: 1. the result from a learning-based model; 2. the result from a paraphrase-based model; 3. the result from sense frequency ranking method. The sense with most votes will be associated with the input collocation. Evaluation shows that the hybrid model achieves significant improvement when comparing with the other method described in evaluation time. Our method provides more reliable result on associating collocations with senses that can help lexicographers in",

"text": "A collocation is a pair of words that co-occur with more frequency than random. A collocation usually contains a base word (e.g., \"oil\" in fuel oil) and a collocate (e.g., \"fuel\" in fuel oil). In a collocations dictionary, we can find many collocates of a base word (e.g., fuel oil, motor oil, peanut oil, salad oil). Some collocations dictionaries show the collocates for all senses, while other collocations dictionaries present the collocates by senses of a base word so learners can better grasp the usage of a collocation.",

Researches have used thesaurus topics such as Roget's (Yarowsky, 1992) or arbitrarily top-level WordNet senses as classes. There are 44 semantic classes called lexicographer-files and each synset in WordNet is assigned to one lexicographer-file. There are 26 lexicographer-files (or supersenses), which can be used to tag common nouns. Consider the word \"oil\" which can be used as fuel/to make machines work smoothly, or as belonging to the noun.substance supersense and used in cooking could be seen as belonging to the noun.food supersense.",

There are a huge number of collocations in WordNet, so we can use those collocation and supersense pairs to train the model. Sentences containing the input collocations extracted from a large corpus and Chinese translation of the collocations are used as features of the model. We will descript the training process in more details in Chapter 3. An example procedure for associating the collocation of fuel oil with a supersense noun.substance is shown in Figure 1 . We extract sentences containing the input collocation from a corpus and take the sentences and Chinese translation as features. Then, we use the pre-trained machine learning model to predict the supersense. Second, we use the words similarity and words dependency relations to paraphrase the base word. Then, we calculate the WordNet similarity of base word and the paraphrases to identify the supersense. Third, we simply list the lexicographer-files of the input collocation base word and choose the first one as the supersense since the order of the list corresponds to the sense frequency of that word. At last, a relative majority vote for the three results determines the final output.",

Hearst (1991) uses a set of orthographic, syntactic and lexical features to train large text corpora and disambiguates noun homographs. Yarowsky (1992) uses Na\u00efve Bayesian model to train large corpora to disambiguate words to Roget's Thesaurus categories. Leacock, Towell and Voorhees (1993) bases on Bayesian decision theory, neural networks and content vectors to train the knowledge about patterns of words co-occurrences and disambiguates words to WordNet senses.

"text": "In a work more closely to our research, Inumella, Kilgarriff and Kovar (2009) try to assign the collocations for a word that automatically identified from a large corpus to its distinct senses. Their short term goal is to generate a new English collocations dictionary (Macmillan Collocation Dictionary). Most of the previous works focus on words level, while this research focuses on collocations. We describe two of their automatic approaches: Thesaurus method and Yarowsky's method (1995) . The thesaurus method works on the promise that a sense shares its collocates with its thesaurus class members. For example, consider a thesaurus class with six members {cricket, butterfly, leech, worm, bee, queen}, they extract collocates such as young, fly, feed, breed that at least appear in two class members and insert them to that sense. Another method is Yarowsky's method, which relies on the heuristic of \"one sense per collocation\" (Yarowsky, 1993) and \"one sense per discourse\" (Gale, Church and Yarowsky, 1992) . The algorithm first collects some seed collocations with senses by dictionary-parsing and uses supervised classification algorithms for training and labeling. Then they add new labeled collocations to training set and repeat labeling. Finally, they use a decision list algorithm to terminate.",

"text": "In this chapter, we report the evaluation results of our experiments using methodologies and the settings we described in Chapter 4. We evaluated 8 different methods as described in Section 4.2. We ran ten-fold validation on 6,660 random selected collocations. We report the average performance of the 10 test results. For non-learning based method, we evaluated the whole 6,660 collocations. For comparison, we used the baseline of sense frequency ranking method FR with 75% precision, recall and F-measure. The learning-based method LB achieves the precision 80% and recall 62% with 5% increases in precision. But the recall decreases since no sentences containing the collocations are found in the corpus. Those collocations are not given a supersense. If we add FR to the system as LB+FR, the precision, recall and F-measure increases to 80%. The paraphrase-based method PB on development dataset has a 5% increase on precision comparing with baseline, but on test dataset, the precision decreases to 76% with a low recall of 55%. The low recall is due to the fact that many collocations paraphrases cannot be found. For this we also add FR to the system as a back-off and the precision, recall and F-measure of PB+FR increases to 76%. The experimental result on LB+PB shows that the precision maintains on 80%, and recall increases nearly 10% comparing with LB and achieves the highest recall in all the methods without FR.",

"text": "The performance of LB+PB+FR reaches 80%, the same as LB+FR since the performance of PB is not good as LB. We believe that using a relative majority vote to determine the supersense would lead a better performance. MV+BO confirms our hypothesis and achieves the best performance of precision, recall and F-measure 81%. The precision of majority vote that has 3 votes is 95% with recall of 33% while the majority with 2 votes is precision 79% and recall 34%. So with more than 2 votes, the precision reaches 87% with a recall of 67% and F-measure of 76%.",

"text": "Take a deeper look in the sense dominance problem we mentioned in Chapter 3. Previous work suffered from that the collocations are often associated with dominant senses. We show the performance of MV+BO when dealing with two different condition: (1) most frequent sense collocations, (2) non-most frequent sense collocations. We could see that when dealing with most frequent sense collocations, 93% of collocations can be correctly associated with supersenses. When dealing with non-most frequent sense collocations, we are still able to correctly associate 46% of collocations with supersenses. So we prove that the sense dominance problem can be reduced by using our hybrid algorithm.",

"text": "Many avenues exist for future research and improvement of our system. For example, in the learning-based method, the recall could increase by using a larger corpus or the web data to extract more sentences as collocations' features. The cases where the sentences of the input collocation are not found in a corpus could be reduced. Additionally, we could improve the quality of collocation translations to improve the performance of the learning-based method. In the paraphrase-based method, both precision and recall are not satisfactory, but we still believe that the method has potential. By generating a new similar words list and dependency relations list using a large corpus could produce better paraphrases for associating collocations with supersenses and increasing the recall. Most of the 26 supersenses are natural and reasonable. However, we still find that some supersenses are not very intuitive and may cause problems in tagging. So finding more appropriate set of classes is worth further study.",

"text": "In summary, we have introduced a hybrid method to automatically associate collocations with supersenses. Our goal is to help lexicographers in compilation of a collocation dictionary and help learners to better grasp the usage of a collocation. Our method is composed of a learning-based model, a paraphrase-based method, and a sense frequency ranking method. In our evaluation, we have shown that the hybrid method is significantly better compared with other methods described in this paper. And we also prove that our model can partially reduce the sense dominance problem.",
