چکیده

This paper explores the hypothesis that semantic relatedness may be more reliably inferred by using a multilingual space, as compared to the typical monolingual representation. Through evaluations using several stateof-the-art semantic relatedness systems, applied on standard datasets, we show that a multilingual approach is better suited for this task, and leads to improvements of up to 47% with respect to the monolingual baseline.

Clustering multilingual documents by estimating text - to - text semantic relatedness

This thesis is about multilingual document clustering through estimating semantic relatedness between multilingual texts. Specifically we focus on the task of clustering multilingual documents with very limited or no supervisory information. We present two approaches to address the problem : a comparable-corpora based approach and a web-searches based approach. Our first approach derives pairwi...

Multilingual Distributed Representations without Word Alignment

Distributed representations of meaning are a natural way to encode covariance relationships between words and phrases in NLP. By overcoming data sparsity problems, as well as providing information about semantic relatedness which is not available in discrete representations, distributed representations have proven useful in many NLP tasks. Recent work has shown how compositional semantic repres...

Combining Word Representations for Measuring Word Relatedness and Similarity

Many unsupervised methods, such as Latent Semantic Analysis and Latent Dirichlet Allocation, have been proposed to automatically infer word representations in the form of a vector. By representing a word by a vector, one can exploit the power of vector algebra to solve many Natural Language Processing tasks e.g. by computing the cosine similarity between the corresponding word vectors the seman...

Computing the Semantic Relatedness of Music Genre using Semantic Web Data

Computing the semantic relatedness between two entities has many applications domains. In this paper, we show a new way to compute the semantic relatedness between two resources using semantic web data. Moreover, we show how this measure can be used to compute the semantic relatedness between music genres which can be used for music recommendation systems. We first describe how to build a vecto...

Presentation of an efficient automatic short answer grading model based on combination of pseudo relevance feedback and semantic relatedness measures

Automatic short answer grading (ASAG) is the automated process of assessing answers based on natural language using computation methods and machine learning algorithms. Development of large-scale smart education systems on one hand and the importance of assessment as a key factor in the learning process and its confronted challenges, on the other hand, have significantly increased the need for ...
