A Comparison of Architectures and Pretraining Methods for Contextualized Multilingual Word Embeddings
Niels van der Heijden, Samira Abnar, Ekaterina Shutova
The lack of annotated data in many languages is a well-known challenge within the field of multilingual natural language processing (NLP). Therefore, many recent studies focus on z…
Robust Evaluation of Language-Brain Encoding Experiments
Lisa Beinborn, Samira Abnar, Rochelle Choenni
Language-brain encoding experiments evaluate the ability of language models to predict brain responses elicited by language stimuli. The evaluation scenarios for this task have not…
Incremental Reading for Question Answering
Samira Abnar, Tania Bedrax-weiss, Tom Kwiatkowski +1
Any system which performs goal-directed continual learning must not only learn incrementally but process and absorb information incrementally. Such a system also has to understand…
Experiential, Distributional and Dependency-based Word Embeddings have Complementary Roles in Decoding Brain Activity
Samira Abnar, Rasyan Ahmed, Max Mijnheer +1
We evaluate 8 different word embedding models on their usefulness for predicting the neural activation patterns associated with concrete nouns. The models we consider include an ex…
