Simulating Human Ratings on Word Concreteness

However, word concreteness is not an attribute that a A single word in the human language has many complex computer can directly compute. One means of assessing dimensions such as semantics, parts of speech, lexical type, the characteristics of words is by having humans rate them imagability, concreteness, familiarity, etc. It is important to on the dimensions of interest. Humans are proficient in know the dimensions of words in languages so that we can categorizing words into linguistic dimensions, but it is develop a better theoretical understanding of language and impractical to have humans rating tens of thousands of also to build tools that simulate human intelligence and words that we would need for psycholinguistic research.
