Word2Vec effectiveness tested on minimal vocabulary language

A new study published on arXiv investigates the effectiveness of Word2Vec in capturing semantic relationships within a highly restricted vocabulary, using the constructed language Toki Pona. Researchers trained Word2Vec on 1.4 million Toki Pona sentences, analyzing the impact of non-Toki Pona tokens such as named entities and loanwords on embedding performance. The findings suggest that Word2Vec's efficacy is more dependent on distributional patterns than lexicon size, even at this extreme vocabulary limit. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates Word2Vec's robustness to vocabulary size, suggesting potential for its application in low-resource language scenarios.
