PROJECT FILM / ZONGO MAQUTU

Word arithmetic, neighborhoods and semantic paths

A tour of three word-embedding tools: king minus man plus woman, a semantic neighborhood around greek, and a path from computer to internet.

32 seconds · word arithmetic, semantic neighborhoods, and paths · from my demo recordings. · Silent demonstration.

What the film shows

  1. Word arithmetic combines embedding vectors to explore analogies.
  2. A neighborhood view brings related words into focus.
  3. A semantic path connects computer to internet through intermediate words.

Behind the demonstration

Edited from my application demonstrations. The spatial display is a projection; semantic similarity is computed in the original embedding space.
