Semantic distance is a determining factor in cognitive processes, such as semantic priming,
operating upon semantic memory. The main computational approach to compute semantic …

A thematic relation is a temporal, spatial, causal, or functional relation between things that

Distributional models of lexical semantics are capable of acquiring sophisticated
representations of word meanings. The main theoretical insight provided by these models is …

Judgments of learning (JOLs) are often reactive on memory for cue-target pairs. This pattern,
however, is moderated by relatedness, as related but not unrelated pairs often show a …
