Bilingual Learning of Multi-sense Embeddings with Discrete Autoencoders
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an approach to learning multi-sense word embeddings relying both on monolingual and bilingual information. Our model consists of an encoder, which uses monolingual and bilingual context (i.e. a parallel sentence) to choose a sense for a given word, and a decoder which predicts context words based on the chosen sense. The two components are estimated jointly. We observe that the word representations induced from bilingual data outperform the monolingual counterparts across a range of evaluation tasks, even though crosslingual information is not available at test time.

Beyond Bilingual: Multi-sense Word Embeddings using Multilingual Context
Word embeddings, which represent a word as a point in a vector space, have become ubiquitous to several NLP tasks. A recent line of work uses bilingual (two languages) corpora to learn a different vector for each sense of a word, by exploiting crosslingual signals to aid sense identification. We present a multi-view Bayesian non-parametric algorithm which improves multi-sense word embeddings by...
متن کاملBattRAE: Bidimensional Attention-Based Recursive Autoencoders for Learning Bilingual Phrase Embeddings
In this paper, we propose a bidimensional attention based recursive autoencoder (BattRAE) to integrate cues and source-target interactions at multiple levels of granularity into bilingual phrase representations. We employ recursive autoencoders to generate tree structures of phrase with embeddings at different levels of granularity (e.g., words, sub-phrases, phrases). Over these embeddings on t...
متن کاملLearning Sense-specific Word Embeddings By Exploiting Bilingual Resources
Recent work has shown success in learning word embeddings with neural network language models (NNLM). However, the majority of previous NNLMs represent each word with a single embedding, which fails to capture polysemy. In this paper, we address this problem by representing words with multiple and sense-specific embeddings, which are learned from bilingual parallel data. We evaluate our embeddi...
متن کاملA Multi-task Learning Approach to Adapting Bilingual Word Embeddings for Cross-lingual Named Entity Recognition
We show how to adapt bilingual word embeddings (BWE’s) to bootstrap a crosslingual name-entity recognition (NER) system in a language with no labeled data. We assume a setting where we are given a comparable corpus with NER labels for the source language only; our goal is to build a NER model for the target language. The proposed multi-task model jointly trains bilingual word embeddings while o...
متن کاملBilingual Autoencoders with Global Descriptors for Modeling Parallel Sentences
Parallel sentence representations are important for bilingual and cross-lingual tasks in natural language processing. In this paper, we explore a bilingual autoencoder approach to model parallel sentences. We extract sentence-level global descriptors (e.g. min, max) from word embeddings, and construct two monolingual autoencoders over these descriptors on the source and target language. In orde...
