Semantic measure (SM) algorithms allow software to mimic the human ability of assessing the strength of the semantic relations between elements such as concepts, entities, words, or sentences. SM algorithms are typically evaluated by comparison against gold standard datasets built by human annotators. These datasets are composed of pairs of elements and an averaged numeric rating. Building such datasets usually requires asking human annotators to assign a numeric value to their perception of the strength of the semantic relation between two elements. Large language models (LLMs) have recently been successfully used to perform tasks which previously required human intervention, such as text summarization, essay writing, image description, image synthesis, question answering, and so on. In this paper, we present ongoing research on LLMs capabilities for semantic relations assessment. We queried several LLMs to rate the relationship of pairs of elements from existing semantic measures evaluation datasets, and measured the correlation between the results from the LLMs and gold standard datasets. Furthermore, we performed additional experiments to evaluate which other factors can influence LLMs performance in this task. We present and discuss the results obtained so far.
