A Comparison of Word Embeddings for English and Cross-Lingual Chinese Word Sense Disambiguation
Table 2: Comparison of systems by their accuracy score on both Lexical Sample and All Words tasks. Rank 1 system refers to the top ranked system in the respective shared tasks.
['[BOLD] Method', '[BOLD] SE-2  [BOLD] LS', '[BOLD] SE-3  [BOLD] LS', '[BOLD] SE-2  [BOLD] AW', '[BOLD] SE-3  [BOLD] AW', '[BOLD] SE-2007  [BOLD] Fine-', '[BOLD] SE-2007  [BOLD] Coarse-']
We obtain statistically significant improvements over IMS on the LS tasks. Our enhancements to IMS to make use of word embeddings also give better results on the AW task than the original IMS, the respective Rank 1 systems from the original shared tasks, and several recent systems developed and evaluated evaluated on the same tasks. We note that although our system increased accuracy on IMS on several AW tasks, the differences were not statistically significant (as measured using McNemar’s test for paired nominal data).
