Hierarchical Mapping for Crosslingual Word Embedding Alignment (2020.tacl-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing strategies that map word embeddings into a crosslingual space are biased towards the choice of the pivot language. |
| Approach: | They propose to map any two languages into a different middle space by learning mappings across languages in a hierarchical way. |
| Outcome: | The proposed strategy significantly improves vocabulary induction scores in all existing benchmarks and in a new non-English–centered benchmark. |
