• We constructed very large Web-derived, POS-tagged and lemmatized corpora of English (with dependency parsing), German, Italian and French: to download them, visit the WaCky project;
• The DISSECT toolkit to construct and compose distributional semantic representations (for other tools and data sets produced by the COMPOSES project please visit the project page);
• BLIND (BLind Italian Norming Data), semantic norms collected from congenitally blind and highly comparable sighted subjects;
• BLESS (Baroni-Lenci Evaluation of Semantic Similarity), a large data set to evaluate computational models of semantic similarity;
• DM: trained model (weighted word-link-word tuples) and utility scripts;
• Semantic norms for German and Italian: available in this archive and documented in this article;
• zipfR: a toolkit for lexical statistics in R;
• BootCaT: a toolkit for bootstrapping specialized language corpora and terms from the web;
