word2set: WordNet-Based Word Representation Rivaling Neural Word Embedding for Lexical Similarity and Sentiment Analysis.

Measuring lexical similarity using WordNet has a long tradition. In the last decade, it has been challenged by distributional methods, and more recently by neural word embedding. In recent years, several larger lexical similarity benchmarks have been introduced, on which word embedding has achieved state-of-the-art results. The success of such methods has eclipsed the use of WordNet for predicting...
