Results reported in Table 3 are the average of the correlations obtained for each target word with gold and automatic substitutes (from the two substitute pools), and for each type of features, substitutebased and embedding-based (cosine similarities from BERT and context2vec). We also report results with the additional CoInCo training data. Unsurprisingly, the best results are obtained by the methods that use the gold substitutes. This is consistent with previous analyses by Erk et al. (2009) who found overlap in manually-proposed substitutes to correlate with Usim judgments. The lower performance of features that rely on automatically selected substitutes (AUTO-LSCNC and AUTO-PPDB) demonstrates the impact of substitute quality on the contribution of this type of features. The addition of CoInCo data does not seem to help the models, as results are slightly lower than in the only Usim setting. This can be due to the fact that CoInCo data contains only extreme cases of similarity (SAME/DIFF) and no in-termediate ratings. The slight improvement in the combined settings over embedding-based models is not significant in AUTO-LSCNC substitutes, but it is for gold substitutes (p < 0.001). 13 For comparison to the topic-modelling approach of Lui et al. (2012) , we evaluate on the 34 lemmas used in their experiments. They report a correlation calculated over all instances. With the exception of the substitute-only setting with PPDB candidates, all of our Usim models get higher correlation than their model (\u03c1 = 0.202), with \u03c1 = 0.512 for the combination of AUTO-LSCNC substitutes and embeddings. The average of the per target word correlation in Lui et al. (2012) (\u03c1 = 0.388) is still lower than that of our AUTO-LSCNC model in the combined setting (\u03c1 = 0.500).", |

Results for the best configurations for each training set are reported in Table 4 . Experiments on the development set showed that target word BERT representations and USE sentence embeddings are the best-suited for WiC. Therefore, 'embedding-based features' here refers to these two representations. Results on the development set can be found in Appendix D. All configurations obtain higher accuracy than the previous best reported result on this dataset (59.4) (Pilehvar and Camacho-Collados, 2019), obtained using DeConf vectors, which are multi-prototype embeddings based on WordNet knowledge (Pilehvar and Collier, 2016). Similar to the graded Usim experiments, adding substitute-based features to embedding features slightly improves the accuracy of the model. Also, combining the Co-InCo and WiC data for training does not have a clear impact on results, even in this binary classification setting.", |

| "text": "Results reported for Usim are the average correlation for each target word, but the strength of the correlation varies greatly for different words for all models and settings. For example, in the case of direct Usim prediction with embeddings using BERT target, Spearman's \u03c1 ranges from 0.805 (for the verb fire) to -0.111 (for the verb suffer). This variation in performance is not surprising, since annotators themselves found some lemmas harder to annotate than others, as reflected in the Usim inter-annotator agreement measure (Uiaa) (McCarthy et al., 2016) . We find that BERT target word embeddings results correlate with Uiaa per target word (\u03c1 = 0.59, p < 0.05), showing that the performance of this model depends to a certain extent on the ease of annotation for each lemma. Uiaa also correlates with the standard deviation of average Usim scores by target word (\u03c1 = 0.66, p < 0.001). Indeed, average Usim values for the word suffer do not exhibit high variance as they only range from 3.6 to 4.9. Within a smaller range of scores, a strong correlation is harder to obtain. The negative correlation between Uiaa and Umid (\u22120.46, p < 0.001) also suggests that words with higher disagreement tend to exhibit a higher proportion of mid-range judgments. We believe that this analysis highlights the difference between usage similarity across target words and encourages a by-lemma approach where the specificities of each lemma are taken into account.", |

We also proposed novel supervised models which use as features the best performing embedding representations, and make high quality predictions especially in the binary setting, outperforming previous approaches. The supervised models include features based on in-context lexical substitutes. We show that automatic substitutions constitute an alternative to manual annotation when combined with the embedding-based features. Nevertheless, if there is no specific reason for using substitutes for measuring Usim, BERT offers a much more straightforward solution to the Usim prediction problem. In future work, we plan to use automatic Usim predictions for estimating word sense partitionability. We believe such knowledge can be useful to determine the appropriate meaning representation for each lemma.", |
