Abstract

In this paper we address the problem of discovering word semantic similarities via statistical processing of text corpora. We propose a knowledge-poor method that exploits the sentencial context of words for extracting similarity relations between them as well as semantic in nature word clusters. The approach aims at full portability across domains and languages and therefore is based on minimal resources.
