Description: DURel is an annotation tool for sentence pairs of a word. The annotations are used to form sense clusters of a word and to visualize them over time. In this way, lexical properties such as polysemy, vagueness or change of meaning of a word can be examined. [link to tool]

The functionality of the tool is described in this video and this blog article.

The creation of the tool was supported by the CRETA center funded by the German Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF). We thank Anne Reuter, Annalena Streichert, Enrique Medina Waldo Castaneda and Lukas Theuer Linke for the initial implementation in a student project.
