CHANGES - Revision history for WordNet::SenseRelate::AllWords
Date : May 27, 2009
Added --backoff option to wsd.pl. This option backs off to WordNet sense1 if the measure can't assign any sense.
semcor-reformat.pl used querySense and reformatted the original text that contained the first word in the synset instead of the original word. It no more uses querySense and the formatted text contains the original semcor lemmas.
Added scripts utils/extract-semcor-plaintext.pl, utils/extract-semcor-contentwords.pl and utils/convert-PENN-to-WN.pl.
utils/extract-semcor-plaintext.pl extracts plain text from a semcor formatted file. The text contains function words, content words as well as punctuation marks. This text is used for part-of-speech tagging.
utils/extract-semcor-contentwords.pl extracts content words given an answer file (typically a plain text file extracted using extract-semcor-plaintext.pl which has been tagged using a part of speech tagger) and a key file extracted using extract-semcor-plaintext.pl --key option.
utils/convert-PENN-to-WN.pl takes PENN treeb bank tagged text (format word PENNPOS per line) and converts it to WordNet tagged text.
Added default config files web/cgi-bin/allwords/user_data/lesk-stoplist.conf and web/cgi-bin/allwords/user_data/vector-stoplist.conf to the web folder. This is important because if the default config stoplists are not used for lesk and vector , they end up giving unexpected results.
Changed scorer2-format.pl to format the string only if it is in word#pos#sense format.
Date : April 30, 2009
Added following options to wsd.pl
--usemono enable assigning the only available sense to monosemy words
This is a change in AllWords.pm, where we assign the available sense to monosemy words. This results in increased precision and overall fmeasure because many measures can not get these words right as they can't find relatedness with the surrounding words.
These options are added in order to carry different experiments.
Fixed the script calculate-corpus-stats.pl. This is a perl script that gives corpus statistics given a semcor-reformatted corpus file.
Date : April 2, 2009
Fixed AllWords.pm for window=2. If it is the first word in a sentence and the window size is 2, we now consider a word at the right of the target word. Otherwise it will not be assigned any sense. In the previous version we were simply doing sense1 for such scenario.
Added a script calculate-corpus-stats.pl to utils/ which gives statistics of the reformatted corpus.
Date : March 16, 2009
Fixed wsd.pl and the web interface output for multiword compounds ( for example, by_and_large).
Punctuation fix for the raw format. If the format is raw and if the context contains words i.e. or el_al., then the period is not removed.
If format is raw and the context contains user identified compound words (for example St._Petersburg), then the punctuation is not removed. Please refer README for details.
Mapped Penn Treebank IN tag to WordNet 'r'(adverb) part of speech tag because most of the words in this class have adverb sense in WordNet.
Date : February 14, 2009
Fixed the links of the default stoplist and nocompoundify option on the web interface.
Date : February 13, 2009
Added allwords-scorer2.pl script for scoring. This script is modeled after score2 C program (http://www.senseval.org/senseval3/scoring). scorer2 C program is no more used for scoring.
Changed wsd.pl and the web interface output format. The output now displays the original text. For example, if the input text is 'parking_ticket#n are#v expensive#a' then the output will be 'parking_tickets#n#1 are#v#1 expensive#a#1'. Modified t/wsd.t for this change.
Removed config file option from the web interface
Added --nocompoundify option in wsd.pl and the web interface
Modified the default stoplist used by the web interface (web/cgi-bin/allwords/user_data/default-stoplist-raw.txt) and replicated it to samples/default-stoplist-raw.txt to be used by wsd.pl.
Fixed the ForcePos option on the webinterface.
Fixed the web interface crash when the user didn't provide any stoplist
Modified scorer2-format.pl to skip the entries where no sense is assigned.
--scorer2 option is no more provided in wsd-experiments.pl and the script calls utils/allwords-scorer2.pl.
Date : January 22, 2009
Setup for wsd.pl experiments. Added 2 scripts scorer2-sort.pl and wsd-experiments.pl. scorer2-sort.pl sorts the output of scorer2-format.pl so that it can be used as input to the Senseval scorer2 program. wsd-experiments.pl runs wsd experiments.
Documentation changes in wsd.pl, scorer2-format.pl, semcor-reformat.pl.
Makefile changes to install newly added perl scripts.
Date : November 03, 2008
Fixed client server model for the web interface. The allwords server can run on a different machine, from where your web server is running.
User data is now stored on the client machine so that it is easily accessible to the user.
Added a mandatory --logfile parameter alomg with other optional parameters to allwords_server.pl
Removed --outfile option from wsd.pl and added --glosses options to display glosses
Moved default-stoplist-raw.txt from WordNet-SenseRelate-AllWords/web/cgi-bin/allwords to /WordNet-SenseRelate-AllWords/web/cgi-bin/allwords/user_data
Date : June 17, 2008
Removed compounding logic from AllWords.pm. Compounding is now done using WordNet::Tools compoundify. The clients, wsd.pl and allwords_server.pl don't call compoundify any more. They creat WordNet::Tools object and pass it as a parameter while creating AllWords object.
Moved sentence splitter from wsd.pl to a util program, sentence_split.pl. All input formats will now assume that input is one sentence per line, one line per sentence.
Removed parsed format test case from t/wsd.t
Context was considered as a single line if more than one line was entered in the textarea on the web interface. Now the input is considered as one sentence per line, one line per sentence.
Date : May 29, 2008
Added proper error messages for the words which are ignored during disambiguation. A suffix is attached to the word in order to indicate why it is ignored for disambiguation. For example, the word 'the' is not defined in WordNet and hence is ignored. We attach the#ND to indicate that this word is not defined in WordNet
Added context file and config file option to the Web interface
Removed --compounds option from wsd.pl as we decided to use centralized compoundify module WordNet::Tools
Added compoundify in wsd.pl. This is done using the centralized WordNet::Tools module
Removed WordNet::SenseRelate dependency of the Web interface. Now compoundifying is done using WordNet::Tools
Date : April 10, 2008 (all changes by TDP)
Modified test cases further to check for WordNet version using WordNet::Tools. Changes introduced in 0.08 testing were based on WordNet::QueryData's deprecated version test. Now skip all tests if we don't find version 2.0, 2.1, or 3.0, and introduce version specific tests within those as needed (if results change from one version of WordNet to the next).
Added reference to Jason Michelizzi's MS thesis, which gives many details about the AllWords approach, plus experimental results
Date : March 20, 2008 (all changes by TDP)
Fixed bug in AllWords.pm that caused disambiguate to fail when window not specified. we now default to window size 3.
Fixed synopsis in AllWords.pm to provide a cut and paste program that should run
Modified Makefile.PL to allow for use of 'make dist' and create META.yml
Changed release procedure, now using 'make dist' in order to avoid CVS export, and also create a directory that unpacks with a version number.
Date : March 17, 2008
