Sense Learning with Topic Modelling

Timothy Baldwin
Dept of Computing and Information Systems
University of Melbourne, Australia

In this talk, I will describe an unsupervised topic modelling approach to automatically induce word senses of a target word, and describe how the method can be applied to predominant sense learning and sense frequency estimation, and also the novel tasks of detecting senses which are not attested in the corpus, and identifying novel senses in the corpus which are not captured in the sense inventory.
