# Shoval Sadde

3 paper cards in the Research library · 2019–2022

Shoval Sadde wrote 3 of the papers Mova reads, in 2019–2022, most of them on [Word sense disambiguation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/topics/word-sense-disambiguation/); often with [Reut Tsarfaty](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/reut-tsarfaty/), [Amit Seker](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/amit-seker/), [Aynat Rubinstein](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/aynat-rubinstein/).

[OpenAlex](https://openalex.org/A5046322107) · [**h-index 7**](https://openalex.org/authors/A5046322107) · [135 citations](https://openalex.org/authors/A5046322107) · [14 works](https://openalex.org/works?filter=author.id:A5046322107) — openalex-snapshot, 2026-10-14

The profile is the library's match of the name; two people with one name are not always told apart.

## Ideas Mova took (1)

From the ideas ledger: an idea tried, kept or queued, or measured with no gain, and what it gave.

- **measured, no gain** — Keep the lattice: let tools/hbo output every segmentation candidate of a token, with its tag and lemma per arc, and pass the whole lattice to gparse, so that the parser can choose the segmentation that fits the tree. *([What's Wrong with Hebrew NLP? And How to Make it Right](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/aclbulk-2019-tsarfaty-what-s-wrong-hebrew-nlp/) · lattice in tools/hbo (hbo lattice / gparse GP_SCORE / hbo choose): the tree score does not pick the gold split (gold candidate +0.13 mean tree gain vs -0.41…)*

## Papers

1. **[Large Scale Substitution-based Word Sense Induction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/lex-2022-eyal-substitution-wsi/)** *(2022)* The paper induces word senses for every frequent word of a large corpus. For each corpus position a masked language model proposes the top five substitutes, and the substitute vectors are clustered per word type into senses. The result is a sense-tagged corpus in which each sense comes with indicative words. Storing…
2. **[The Possible, the Plausible, and the Desirable: Event-Based Modality Detection for Language Processing](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/pyatkin-2021-possible-plausible-desirable-event-based/)** *(2021)* The paper defines event-based modality detection: find every modal trigger in a sentence, of any part of speech (should, plan, prefers, probably, necessary, able), give it a sense, and link it to the head of the event it modifies.
3. **[What's Wrong with Hebrew NLP? And How to Make it Right](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/aclbulk-2019-tsarfaty-what-s-wrong-hebrew-nlp/)** *(2019)* The paper presents ONLP (YAP), an open system for Modern Hebrew that does segmentation, POS tagging, lemmas, features and labelled dependencies in one package.
