Characterizing Departures from Linearity in Word Translation (P18-2)

| Challenge: | a class of methods has emerged to learn linear maps between word embedding spaces of different languages. |
| Approach: | They propose to approximate word embedding spaces using linear maps . they show that the underlying maps are non-linear but vary by a proportion of distance . |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods can be used to test non-linear methods and drive the design of more accurate maps for word translation. |
