Robust Backed-off Estimation of Out-of-Vocabulary Embeddings (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to solving out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words use subwords to represent oov words with a bag of subword. |
| Approach: | They propose a method to estimate oov word embeddings by referring to pre-trained word embeds for known words with similar surfaces to target ov words. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method improves word similarity tasks and biomedical tasks even with weak baselines. |
