Semantic Neighbourhoods of English Noun Compounds over Times

We provide a framework and tool set for computing and visualising dynamic, time-specific semantic neighbourhoods of English noun-noun compounds and their constituents over time. Our framework not only identifies salient vector-space dimensions and neighbours in notoriously sparse data: we specifically bring together changes in meaning aspects and degrees of (non-)compositionality. Please contact us to obtain the neighbours or the visualisation tool.
