For these reasons, to obtain a more interesting comparison, we modified CoMiC-EN to perform scoring instead of meaning comparison. This means that the memory-based learning approach CoMiC-EN had employed so far was no longer applicable and had to be replaced with a regression-capable learning strategy. We chose Support Vector Regression (SVR) using libSVM 4 since that is one of the methods employed by<cite> Mohler et al. (2011)</cite> .
