  abstract  = {This paper reports the first study on automatic generation of distractors for
	fill-in-the-blank items for learning Chinese vocabulary.  We investigate the
	quality of distractors generated by a number of criteria, including
	part-of-speech, difficulty level, spelling, word co-occurrence and semantic
	similarity.  Evaluations show that a semantic similarity measure, based on the
	word2vec model, yields distractors that are significantly more plausible than
	those generated by baseline methods.},
