MuCoW - Multilingual Contrastive Word sense disambiguation test suites for machine translation

WMT 2019 Version

A first version of MuCoW was introduced at WMT 2019:

Alessandro Raganato, Yves Scherrer and Jörg Tiedemann. 2019. The MuCoW test suite at WMT 2019: Automatically harvested multilingual contrastive word sense disambiguation test sets for machine translation. In Proceedings of the Fourth Conference on Machine Translation (WMT): Shared Task Papers. Florence, Italy.

The relevant data for this version can be found in the WMT2019 folder.

The same data was used again to evaluate the WMT 2020 systems:

Yves Scherrer, Alessandro Raganato, Jörg Tiedemann. 2020 The MUCOW word sense disambiguation test suite at WMT 2020. In Proceedings of the Fifth Conference on Machine Translation (WMT). Online.

LREC 2020 Version

An extended version of MuCoW including training data is presented at LREC 2020:

Alessandro Raganato, Yves Scherrer and Jörg Tiedemann. 2020. An Evaluation Benchmark for Testing the Word Sense Disambiguation Capabilities of Machine Translation Systems. In Proceedings of the 12th Language Resources and Evaluation Conference. Marseille, France.

The relevant data for this version can be found in the LREC2020 folder.

A note on evaluation:

For both WMT and LREC versions, there is a mismatch between the definitions of recall given in the papers and those used to compute the results. The evaluation scripts have been updated to provide both variants: recallA corresponds to the one effectively used in the results tables, recallB corresponds to the definition in the papers.
