A Distributional Memory for German

, and . Proceedings of the KONVENS workshop on recent developments and applications of lexical-semantic resources, Vienna, Austria, (2012)

Abstract

This paper describes the creation of a Distri- butional Memory (Baroni and Lenci 2010) resource for German. Distributional Mem- ory is a generalized distributional resource for lexical semantics that does not have to commit to a particular vector space at the time of creation. We induce a resource from a German corpus, following the original de- sign decisions as closely as possible, and discuss the steps necessary for a new lan- guage. We evaluate the German DM model on a synonym selection task, finding that it can compete with existing models.
