This paper presents a comparison of unsupervised methods of hypernymy prediction (i.e., to predict which word in a pair of words such as fish-cod is the hypernym and which the hyponym). Most importantly, we demonstrate across datasets for English and for German that the predictions of three methods (WeedsPrec, invCL, SLQS Row) strongly overlap and are highly correlated with frequency-based predictions. In contrast, the second-order method SLQS shows an overall lower accuracy but makes correct predictions where the others go wrong. Our study once more confirms the general need to check the frequency bias of a computational method in order to identify frequency-(un)related effects. |
