Word meaning is modeled as a set of senses, which are tracked of terms from two time periods (Popescu and Strapparava, 2013; Cook and Stevenson, 2010), to training distributional similarity models on time slices (2014) manually identify 13 target words which undergo meaning change in a focus corpus with respect to a reference corpus (both news text). word, our model infers its senses for each time interval and their probability.
