| Challenge: | Word embeddings are powerful dictionaries, but they fail to give sense to rare words . a large body of research is devoted to devising ways to capture word meaning . |
| Approach: | They propose to use definitions retrieved from traditional dictionaries to build word embeddings for rare words. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods outperform state-of-the-art methods for embeddings of unknown words . the proposed methods significantly outperformed the BERT method for OOV words compared to the proposed method . |
