About this document
Measuring Word Similarity with Web Data by Haritha Chowdary is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document proposes a new method to measure semantic similarity between words using web search engines. It analyzes page counts and text snippets retrieved from searches to define word co-occurrence measures. It introduces a novel pattern extraction algorithm and pattern clustering algorithm to identify various semantic relations between words from snippets. An optimal combination of page count measures and lexical pattern clusters is learned using support vector machines. The method outperforms baselines
