A Closer Look on Unsupervised Cross-lingual Word Embeddings Mapping (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for word embeddings are limited to a single, unannotated corpus, which means that word representations with similar meaning in distinct languages can be very different. |
| Approach: | They propose an unsupervised method for cross-lingual word embedding mapping that uses stochastic initialization and isometric initialization to verify the method's robustness. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is robust on different embedding representations and new language pairs, particularly those involving Slavic languages like Polish or Czech. |
