We acquire the meanings of these adjectives from a large corpus and propose a probabilistic model which provides a ranking on the set of possible interpretations. We identify lexical semantic information automatically by exploiting the consistent correspondences between surface syntactic cues and lexical meaning. We evaluate our results against paraphrase judgments elicited experimentally from humans and show that the model's ranking of meanings correlates reliably with human intuitions: meanings that are found highly probable by the model are also rated as plausible by the subjects.http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/285f529a179de3af735ca8dbc75bb2f68/dblpdblp2004-03-15T00:00:00+01:00dblp <span class="authorEditorList"><a href="/author/Lapata">Maria Lapata</a> </span><em>NAACL, </em>(<em>2001</em>)Mon Mar 15 00:00:00 CET 2004NAACLA Corpus-based Account of Regular Polysemy: The Case of Context-sensitive Adjectives.2001dblp dblp
