SensEval/SemEval
is a series of competitions in computational lexical semantics. It
started out as a competition in automatic word sense disambiguation, but
SemEval-2007
started looking a much wider variety of tasks, such as lexical
substitution (paraphrasing) and metonymy resolution. Also check out the
task list for the most recent SemEval-2010.
