New graph analysis method reveals semantic type info in word embeddings

Researchers have developed a novel graph-based method to analyze how semantic type information is represented in contextualized word embeddings. This approach uses nouns from ten semantic types and annotates corpus instances to distinguish between matching and coerced semantic types. The study proposes two metrics, Neighbor Type Probability (NTP) and Neighbor Type Entropy (NTE), to evaluate the distribution of types in an embedding's neighborhood, finding that sense-enhanced embeddings better capture this semantic information.

    A graph-based analysis of semantic types and coercion in contextualized word embeddings

    arXiv:2605.23710v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semantic type mismatch between a noun and its context is central to coercion phenomena. This paper introduces a graph-based method to examine how lexical and contextual type information is reflected in word embeddings. We select nou…
