Training on Lexical Resources
Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2022)
Abstract
We propose using lexical resources (thesaurus, VAD) to fine-tune pretrained deep nets such as BERT and ERNIE. Then at inference time, these nets can be used to distinguish synonyms from antonyms, as well as VAD distances. The inference method can be applied to words as well as texts such as multiword expressions (MWEs), out of vocabulary words (OOVs), morphological variants and more. Code and data are posted on https://github.com/kwchurch/syn_ant.
