In distributional semantic approaches, words are represented as points in a high dimensional space generated from co-occurrence statistics; the distances between points may then be used to quantifying semantic relationships. Contrary to other approaches which use static, global representations, our approach discovers contextualised representations by dynamically projecting low-dimensional subspaces; in these ad hoc spaces, words can be re-represented in an open-ended assortment of geometrical and conceptual configurations as appropriate for particular contexts. We hypothesise that this context-specific re-representation enables a more effective model of the semantics of metaphor than standard static approaches. We test this hypothesis on a dataset of English word dyads rated for degrees of metaphoricity, meaningfulness, and familiarity by human participants. We demonstrate that our model captures these ratings more effectively than a state-of-the-art static model, and does so via the amount of contextualising work inherent in the re-representational process.} }@inproceedings{NasreenEtAl19SemDial, title = "A Corpus Study on Questions, Responses and Misunderstanding Signals in Conversations with {A}lzheimer's Patients", author = "Nasreen, Shamila and Purver, Matthew and Hough, Julian", booktitle = "Proceedings of the 23rd Workshop on the Semantics and Pragmatics of Dialogue - Full Papers", month = sep, year = "2019", address = "London, United Kingdom", publisher = "SEMDIAL", issn = "2308-2275", annote = "ISSN 2308-2275", url = "http://semdial.org/anthology/Z19-Nasreen_semdial_0013.pdf", } @inproceedings{nasreen-etal-2019-corpus, title = "A Corpus Study on Questions, Responses and Misunderstanding Signals in Conversations with Alzheimer{'}s Patients", author = "Nasreen, Shamila and Purver, Matthew and Hough, Julian", booktitle = "Proceedings of the 23rd Workshop on the Semantics and Pragmatics of Dialogue - Full Papers", month = sep, year = "2019", address = "London, United Kingdom", publisher = "SEMDIAL", url = "http://semdial.org/anthology/Z19-Nasreen_semdial_0013.pdf", }@inproceedings{NasreenEtAl19SLSP, title = "Interaction Patterns in Conversations with {A}lzheimer's Patients", author = "Nasreen, Shamila and Purver, Matthew and Hough, Julian", booktitle = "Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Statistical Language and Speech Processing", month = oct, year = 2019, address = "Ljubljana, Slovenia", url = "http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/~mpurver/papers/nasreen-et-al19slsp.pdf", } @inproceedings{RohanianEtAl19Interspeech, title = "Detecting Depression with Word-Level Multimodal Fusion", author = "Rohanian, Morteza and Hough, Julian and Purver, Matthew", booktitle = "Proceedings of {INTERSPEECH}", pages = "1443--1447", month = sep, year = "2019", address = "Graz, Austria", publisher = "ISCA", issn = "1990-9772", note = "ISSN 1990-9772", doi = "10.21437/Interspeech.2019-2283", url = "http://dx.doi.org/10.21437/Interspeech.2019-2283", url = "https://www.isca-speech.org/archive/Interspeech_2019/pdfs/2283.pdf", url = "http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/~mpurver/papers/rohanian-et-al19interspeech.pdf", } @InProceedings{ SupejEtAl19SSS, author = "Supej, Anka and Plahuta, Marko and Purver, Matthew and Mathioudakis, Michael and Pollak, Senja", title = "Gender, Language, and Society: Word Embeddings as a Reflection of Social Inequalities in Linguistic Corpora", booktitle = "Znanost in dru{\v{z}}be prihodnosti, Slovensko sociolo{\v{s}}ko sre{\v{c}}anje [Annual meeting of the Slovenian Sociological Association: Science and future societies", pages = "75--83", year = 2019, month = oct, editor = "Ignjatovi{\'c}, Miroljub and Kanjuo-Mr{\v{c}}ela, Aleksandra and Kuhar, Roman", annote = "ISBN 978-961-94302-3-1", isbn = "978-961-94302-3-1", url = "https://www.sociolosko-drustvo.si/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/SSD-ZBORNIK-PRISPEVKOV-19-V4.pdf", url = "http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/~mpurver/papers/supej-et-al19sss.pdf" } @InProceedings{WijnholdsEtAl19DS, author = {Wijnholds, Gijs and Purver, Matthew and Sadrzadeh, Mehrnoosh and Kempson, Ruth}, title = {Incremental Semantic Judgements}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 3rd Dynamic Syntax Conference}, month = may, year = 2019, address = {Valletta, Malta}, url = {http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/~mpurver/papers/wijnholds-et-al19ds.pdf} } @Article{ XiaoEtAl19ACM, author = "Xiao, Ping and Toivonen, Hannu and Gross, Oskar and Cardoso, Am{\'\i}lcar and Correia, Penousal Machado, Jo{\~a}o and Martins, Pedro and Gon{\c c}alo Oliveira, Hugo and Sharma, Rahul and Pinto, Alexandre and D{\'\i}az, Alberto and Francisco, Virginia and Gerv{\'a}s, Pablo and Herv{\'a}s, Raquel and Le{\'o}n, Carlos and Forth, Jamie and Purver, Matthew and Wiggins, Geraint and Miljkovi{\'c}, Dragana and Podpe{\v c}an, Vid and Pollak, Senja and Kralj, Jan and {\v Z}nidar{\v s}i{\v c}, Martin and Bohanec, Marko and Lavra{\v c}, Nada and Urban{\v c}i{\v c}, Tanja and van der Velde, Frank and Battersby, Stuart", title = "Conceptual Representations for Computational Concept Creation", journal = "{ACM} Computing Surveys", year = 2019, volume = 52, number = 1, pages = "9:1--9:33", month = feb, publisher = "Association for Computing Machinery", annote = "ISSN 0360-0300", issn = "0360-0300", doi = "10.1145/3186729", url = "http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/3186729", url = "https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3186729", url = "http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/~mpurver/papers/xiao-et-al19acm.pdf" }
