Verbal Idioms: Concrete Nouns in Abstract Contexts

  • 1. Hochschule Hannover

Description

In this paper, we present our approach for the KONVENS 2021 shared task Disambiguation of German Verbal Idioms. Our model is a decision tree-based classifier that uses static word embeddings and computed concreteness values to predict whether a verbal idiom is used figuratively or literal.
