Query: PolyLM: Learning about Polysemy through Language Modeling   To avoid the "meaning conflation deficiency" of word embeddings, a number of
models have aimed to embed individual word senses. These methods at one time
performed well on tasks such as word sense induction (WSI), but they have since
been overtaken by task-specific techniques which exploit contextualized
embeddings. However, sense embeddings and contextualization need not be
mutually exclusive. We introduce PolyLM, a method which formulates the task of
learning sense embeddings as a language modeling problem, allowing
contextualization techniques to be applied. PolyLM is based on two underlying
assumptions about word senses: firstly, that the probability of a word
occurring in a given context is equal to the sum of the probabilities of its
individual senses occurring; and secondly, that for a given occurrence of a
word, one of its senses tends to be much more plausible in the context than the
others. We evaluate PolyLM on WSI, showing that it performs considerably better
than previous sense embedding techniques, and matches the current
state-of-the-art specialized WSI method despite having six times fewer
parameters. Code and pre-trained models are available at
