Next, we replicate the Banerjee and Pedersen (2002) method in extending the glosses to include words from the definitions for the (immediate) hypernyms and/or hyponyms of each sense s i,j .
an extension of the Banerjee and Pedersen (2002) method which makes use of the sense-annotated definitions is to include the words in the definition of each sense-annotated word rather than traversing the ontology relative to each word sense candidate s i,j for the target word w i , we represent each word sense via the original definition plus all definitions of word senses contained in it (weighting each to give the words in the original definition greater import than those from definitions of those word senses).
