چکیده

In this paper we describe the SemEval2010 Cross-Lingual Lexical Substitution task, where given an English target word in context, participating systems had to find an alternative substitute word or phrase in Spanish. The task is based on the English Lexical Substitution task run at SemEval-2007. In this paper we provide background and motivation for the task, we describe the data annotation process and the scoring system, and present the results of the participating systems.

These components and the way they ar...

Cross-Lingual Lexical Substitution (CLLS) is the task that aims at providing for a target word in context, several alternative substitute words in another language. The proposed sets of translations may come from external resources or be extracted from textual data. In this paper, we apply for the first time an unsupervised cross-lingual WSD method to this task. The method exploits the results ...
