HESML V1R4 is the fourth release of the Half-Edge Semantic Measures Library (HESML) detailed in [1], which is a new, linerarly scalable and efficient Java software library of ontology-based semantic similarity measures and Information Content (IC) models based on WordNet. HESML V1R4 implements most ontology-based semantic similarity measures and Information Content (IC) models based on WordNet reported in the literature, as well as the evaluation of three pre-trained word embedding models. It also provides a XML-based input file format in order to specify the execution of reproducible experiments on WordNet-based similarity, even with no software coding. HESML V1R4 introduces the following novelties: (1) a software implementation for the evaluation of three pre-trained word embedding file formats which support most of state-of--the-art models reported in the literature; (2) a software implementation of an intrinsic IC model and two new IC-based semantic similarity measures introduced by Cai et al. (2017); (3) a software implementation of a fast approximation of the Wu&Palmer (1994) measure commonly used in the literature; (4) the integration of a very large set of word similarity benchmarks; and finally (5), the correction of an error in our software implementation of the Leacock&Chodorow (1998) measure in previous HESML versions. HESML library is freely distributed for any non-commercial purpose under a CC By-NC-SA-4.0 license, subject to the citing of the main HESML paper [1] as attribution requirement. On other hand, the commercial use of the similarity measures introduced in [2], as well as part of the intrinsic IC models introduced in [3] and [4], is protected by a patent application [5]. In addition, any user of HESML must fulfill other licensing terms described in [1] related to other resources distributed with the library. References: [1] Lastra-Díaz, J.
