Corpora: Discovering New Senses (Summary)

A couple of weeks ago I posted a query to the corpora/colex lists
regarding work on the identification of "New Senses" of words using
corpora,
possibly with the help of existing monolingual MRDs such as LDOCE
(or even large ontologies).

I would like to thank all the people that took time to respond to that
query,
directly or indirectly, by giving me tips, and by providing me with hard
copies of articles that I had difficulties to obtain. All of these
people have
done a lot of work on that area, although it seems to me that there is a
lot
left to be done!

Many thanks (in alphabetic order) to:
