This work presents a supervised preposi- tional phrase (PP) attachment disambigua- tion system that uses contextualized distri- butional information as the distance met- ric for a nearest-neighbor classifier. Con- textualized word vectors constructed from the GigaWord Corpus provide a method for implicit Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD), whose reliability helps this system outperform baselines and achieve compa- rable results to those of systems with full WSD modules. This suggests that targeted WSD methods are preferable to ignoring sense information and also to implement- ing WSD as an independent module in a pipeline.
