Homograph Disambiguation Through Selective Diacritic Restoration
Sawsan Alqahtani, Hanan Aldarmaki, Mona Diab
Lexical ambiguity, a challenging phenomenon in all natural languages, is particularly prevalent for languages with diacritics that tend to be omitted in writing, such as Arabic. Om…
Efficient Sentence Embedding using Discrete Cosine Transform
Nada Almarwani, Hanan Aldarmaki, Mona Diab
Vector averaging remains one of the most popular sentence embedding methods in spite of its obvious disregard for syntactic structure. While more complex sequential or convolutiona…
Scalable Cross-Lingual Transfer of Neural Sentence Embeddings
Hanan Aldarmaki, Mona Diab
We develop and investigate several cross-lingual alignment approaches for neural sentence embedding models, such as the supervised inference classifier, InferSent, and sequential e…
Context-Aware Cross-Lingual Mapping
Hanan Aldarmaki, Mona Diab
Cross-lingual word vectors are typically obtained by fitting an orthogonal matrix that maps the entries of a bilingual dictionary from a source to a target vector space. Word vecto…
