(2007) . For example, female firstnames may drift into flowers when Iris and Rose are extracted. Many variations on bootstrapping have been developed to reduce semantic drift. 1 One approach is to extract multiple semantic categories simultaneously, where the individual bootstrapping instances compete with one another in an attempt to actively direct the categories away from each other. Multi-category algorithms outperform MLB (Thelen and Riloff, 2002) , and we focus on these algorithms in our experiments.", |

These algorithms differ in how terms and patterns selected by multiple categories are handled, and their scoring metrics. In BASILISK (Thelen and Riloff, 2002) , candidate terms are ranked highly if they have strong evidence for a category and little or no evidence for other categories. This typically favours less frequent terms, as they will match far fewer patterns and are thus more likely to belong to one category. Patterns are selected similarly, however patterns may also be selected by different categories in later iterations. Curran et al. (2007) introduced Mutual Exclu-sion Bootstrapping (MEB) which forces stricter boundaries between the competing categories than BASILISK. In MEB, the key assumptions are that terms only belong to a category and that patterns only extract terms of a single category. Semantic drift is reduced by eliminating patterns that collide with multiple categories in an iteration and by ignoring colliding candidate terms (for the current iteration). This excludes generic patterns that can occur frequently with multiple categories, and reduces the chance of assigning ambiguous terms to their less dominant sense.", |

However, the selected instances are highly likely to introduce drift. Our Weighted MEB algorithm (McIntosh and Curran, 2008) , extends MEB by incorporating term and pattern weighting, and a cumulative pattern pool. WMEB uses the \u03c7 2 statistic to identify patterns and terms that are strongly associated with the growing lexicon terms and their patterns respectively.
