Abstract*
SuperSim is a large-scale similarity and relatedness test set for Swedish built with expert human judgments. The test set is composed of 1360 word-pairs independently judged for both relatedness and similarity by five annotators.

II. USAGE
Key applications
Evaluation of language models
Intended task(s)/usage(s)
(1) Predict semantic similarity of word pairs from a language model
(2) Predict semantic relatedness of word paris from a language model
Recommended evaluation measures
Krippendorff's alpha (the official SuperLim measure), Spearman's rho
Dataset function(s)
Few-shot training ("prompting"), testing
Recommended split(s)
A few-shot training set (aka "prompt", 10%), test set (90%). The prompt was added with the GPT-like models in mind. For those models that do not need a prompt, it can be ignored. The word pairs in the train test are the same for the two tasks.
III. DATA
Primary data*
Text
Language*
Swedish
Dataset in numbers*
1360 word pairs with semantic similarity and semantic relatedness scores, of those 131 train items and 1229 test items.
Nature of the content*
Semantic similarity refers to the extent to which two concepts share semantic properties. Synonymy is the culmination of this concept. Relatedness is a looser lexical conceptual relation that refers to the general (psychological) assocation that may arise for instance because there are causal or instrumental relations between two concepts, or because concepts co-occur frequently, etc, etc. Similarity and relatedness are given as scores between 0 and 10, these scores are in turn averages of judgements on an 11-point scale (0–10).
Format*
The data is split over two files, one for each score. The files are provided both as JSONL and tab separated. TSVs contain the following 8 columns:
(1) word 1
(2) word 2
(3)–(7) individual annotator scores (integer valued)
(8) average score (real valued)
Data source(s)*
The word pairs were translated from SimLex-999 [2] and WordSim353 [3]. The complete set was manually checked and if needed pairs were adjusted (split into multiple or removed) depending on the lexical distinctions made in Swedish. The similarity and relatedness judgements were collected from five annotators, who were paid for the assignment. One of the annotators was also involved in translating the dataset. See discussion in [1].
Data collection method(s)*
Online collection of judgements from (paid) annotators. Annotators used written instructions from SimLex-999 [2]. See discussion in [1].
Data selection and filtering*
See discussion in [1]
Data preprocessing*
See discussion in [1]
Data labeling*
Both the similarity and relatedness scores are manual (gold standard).
Annotator characteristics
All annotators are native speakers of Swedish who hold linguistic degrees. Two have prior lexicographic experience. See [1] for more details.
IV. ETHICS AND CAVEATS
Ethical considerations
None to report.
Things to watch out for
The word pairs are presented out of context. Superlim presently does not prescribe a methodology for the application of contextual (dynamic) language models to this data, which means we can expect considerable variation between test data uses. For reasons of comparability and reproducability, users must make sure to report their chosen method clearly.
