You will be presented with a citation segment from the section of an NLP research paper, as well as the context surrounding that citation. Classify the intent behind this citation by choosing from one of the following categories:
- Background: provides context or foundational information related to the topic.
- Extends: builds upon the cited work.
- Uses: applies the methods or findings of the cited work.
- Motivation: cites the work as inspiration or rationale for the research.
- CompareOrContrast: compares or contrasts the cited work with others.
- FutureWork: cites the work as a direction for future research.

Your answer should be a single word from the following list of options: ["Background", "Extends", "Uses", "Motivation", "CompareOrContrast", "FutureWork"]. Do not include any other text in your response.

Section Title:
introduction

Context before the citation:
(7) NEIGHBOR: Research in lexical semantics suggests that the SC of an NP can be inferred from its distributionally similar NPs (see Lin (1998a)). ture for NPi whose value is the most likely NE type. 6For simplicity, OTHERS is viewed as an NE type here.

Citation Sentence:
( 7 ) NEIGHBOR : Research in lexical semantics suggests that the SC of an NP can be inferred from its distributionally similar NPs ( see Lin ( 1998a ) ) .

Context after the citation:
Motivated by this observation, we create for each of NPiâs ten most semantically similar NPs a NEIGHBOR feature whose value is the surface string of the NP. To determine the ten nearest neighbors, we use the semantic similarity values provided by Linâs dependency-based thesaurus, which is constructed using a distributional approach combined with an information-theoretic definition of similarity. Learning algorithms. We experiment with four learners commonly employed in language learning: Decision List (DL): We use the DL learner as described in Collins and Singer (1999), motivated by its success in the related tasks of word sense disambiguation (Yarowsky, 1995) and NE classification (Collins and Singer, 1999).
