%X We propose to improve word sense embeddings by enriching an automatic corpus-based method with lexicographic data.

The incorporation of lexicographic data yields embeddings that are able to reflect expert-defined word senses, while retaining the robustness, high quality, and coverage of automatic corpus-based methods.
