PCW have been successfully applied to the extraction of named entity coordinate terms, including city and person names, from graphs representing newswire text <cite>(Minkov and Cohen, 2008)</cite> , where the specialized measures learned outperformed the state-ofthe-art dependency vectors method (Padó and Lapata, 2007) for small-and medium-sized corpora. In this work, we apply the path constrained graph walk method to the task of eliciting general word relatedness from parsed text, conducting a set of experiments on the task of synonym extraction.
