Benchmarking Noun Compound Interpretation
Su Nam Kim, Timothy J. Baldwin · 2008
In this paper we provide benchmark results for two classes of methods used in interpreting noun compounds (NCs): semantic similarity-based methods and their hybrids. We evaluate the methods using 7-way and binary class data from the nominal pair interpretation task of SEMEVAL-2007. 1 We summarize and analyse our results, with the intention of providing a framework for benchmarking future research in this area. 1
