Integrating Personalized PageRank into Neural Word Sense Disambiguation

This repo hosts the code necessary to reproduce the results of our EMNLP 2021 paper, Integrating Personalized PageRank into Neural Word Sense Disambiguation, by Ahmed ElSheikh, Michele Bevilacqua and Roberto Navigli.

This repository heavily relies on Simone's code.

Installation

• make sure to have miniconda installed. if not, install it

• It is recommended to create a fresh conda env to use the repo

  - conda create -n wsd_ppr python=3.6.9 pip
  - conda activate wsd_ppr
  - git clone git@github.com:mbevila/neural-pagerank-wsd.git
  - pip install -r requirements.txt
