Papers with word similarity evaluation
Explicit Retrofitting of Distributional Word Vectors (P18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models for word vector specialization focus on word co-occurrences from large text corpora, resulting in a tendency to fuse semantic similarity with other types of semantic relatedness. |
| Approach: | They propose to transform external lexico-semantic relations into training examples and learn an explicit retrofitting model. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can specialize vector spaces of new languages and translate them to other languages. |
A Neural Generative Model for Joint Learning Topics and Topic-Specific Word Embeddings (2020.tacl-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Experimental results show that the proposed model outperforms word-level embedding methods in word similarity evaluation and word sense disambiguation. |
| Approach: | They propose a generative model that explores local and global context for joint learning topics and topic-specific word embeddings. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms word-level embedding methods in word similarity evaluation and word sense disambiguation. |
Cross-lingual Semantic Specialization via Lexical Relation Induction (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Semantic specialization is not available in many languages because of their incomplete or non-existent structure. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that transfers specialization from a resource-rich source language to virtually any target language. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method performs lexical simplification, dialog state tracking, and textual similarity tasks in 5 languages. |
