New framework formalizes semantic similarity for multi-document analysis

A new formal mathematical framework called Semantic Conditional Similarity (SCS) has been introduced to address limitations in traditional Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) methods. SCS allows for the disentanglement of a source document's unique semantic contribution in multi-document scenarios, moving beyond simple pairwise comparisons. This framework enables directionality in relations and extends the comparison domain to conditioned triples, offering a more nuanced understanding of shared and residual content without arbitrary similarity cutoffs.

    Semantic Conditional Similarity (SCS): A Formal Mathematical Framework

    arXiv:2611.08778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) operates on document pairs, returning a single scalar per comparison. In a multi-document setting where several sources may have contributed to one or more targets, pairwise STS cannot disentangle e…
