-A calculus which combined the flexible geometric structure of vector models 
with the crisp efficiency of Boolean logic would be extremely beneficial for 
modelling natural language. With this goal in mind, we present a formulation 
for logical connectives in vector spaces based on standard linear algebra, 
giving ex- amples of the use of vector negation to discriminate between 
different senses of ambiguous words. It turns out that the operators developed 
in this way are pre- cisely the connectives of quantum logic (Birkhoff and von 
Neumann, 1936), which to our knowledge have not been exploited before in 
natural language processing. In quantum logic, arbitrary sets are replaced by 
linear subspaces of a vector space, and set unions, intersections and 
complements are replaced by vector sum, inter- section and orthogonal 
complements of subspaces. We demonstrate that these logi- cal connectives 
(particularly the orthogonal complement for negation) are powerful tools for 
exploring and analys
 ing word meanings and show distinct advantages over Boolean operators in 
document retrieval experiments.
-This paper is organised as follows. In Section 1.1 we describe some of the 
ways vectors have been used to represent the meanings of terms and documents in 
natural language processing, and describe the way the WORD-SPACE used in our 
later experiments is built automatically from text corpora. In Section 1.2 we 
define the logical connectives on vector spaces, focussing particularly on 
negation and disjunction. This introduces the basic material needed to 
understand the worked examples given in Section 1.3, and the document retrieval 
experiments described in Section 1.3.1. Section 1.4 gives a much fuller outline 
of the theory of quantum logic, the natural setting for the operators of 
Section 1.2. Finally, in Section 1.5, we examine the similarities between 
quantum logic and WORD-SPACE, asking whether quantum logic is an appropriate 
framework for modelling word-meanings or if the
-initial successes we have obtained are mainly coincidental.
-To some extent, this paper may have been written backwards, in that the 
im-plementation and examples are at the beginning and most of the theory is at 
the end. This is for two reasons. Firstly, we hoped to make the paper as 
accessible as possible and were afraid that beginning with an introduction to 
the full machinery of quantum logic would defeat this goal before the reader 
has a chance to realise that the techniques and equations used in this work are 
really quite elementary. Secondly, the link with ‘quantum logic’ was itself 
only brought to our attention after the bulk of the results in this paper had 
been obtained, and since this research is very much ongoing, we deemed it 
appropriate to give an honest account of its history and current state.
-We propose two novel model architectures for computing continuous vector 
representations of words from very large data sets. The quality of these 
representations is measured in a word similarity task, and the results are 
compared to the previ- ously best performing techniques based on different 
types of neural networks. We observe large improvements in accuracy at much 
lower computational cost, i.e. it takes less than a day to learn high quality 
word vectors from a 1.6 billion words data set. Furthermore, we show that these 
vectors provide state-of-the-art perfor- mance on our test set for measuring 
syntactic and semantic word similarities.
-Information Retrieval (IR) models need to deal with two difficult issues, 
vocabulary mismatch and term dependencies. Vocabulary mismatch corresponds to 
the difficulty of retrieving relevant documents that do not contain exact query 
terms but semantically related terms. Term dependencies refers to the need of 
considering the relationship between the words of the query when estimating the 
relevance of a document. A multitude of solutions has been proposed to solve 
each of these two problems, but no principled model solve both. In parallel, in 
the last few years, language models based on neural networks have been used to 
cope with complex natural language processing tasks like emotion and paraphrase 
detection. Although they present good abilities to cope with both term 
dependencies and vocabulary mismatch problems, thanks to the distributed 
representation of words they are based upon, such models could not be used 
readily in IR, where the estimation of one language model per document (
 or query) is required. This is both computationally unfeasible and prone to 
over-fitting. Based on a recent work that proposed to learn a generic language 
model that can be modified through a set of document-specific parameters, we 
explore use of new neural network models that are adapted to ad-hoc IR tasks. 
Within the language model IR framework, we propose and study the use of a 
generic language model as well as a document-specific language model. Both can 
be used as a smoothing component, but the latter is more adapted to the 
document at hand and has the potential of being used as a full document 
language model. We experiment with such models and analyze their results on 
TREC-1 to 8 datasets.
-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (BLSTM-RNN) has 
been shown to be very effec- tive for modeling and predicting sequen- tial 
data, e.g. speech utterances or hand- written documents. In this study, we 
propose to use BLSTM-RNN for a uni- fied tagging solution that can be applied 
to various tagging tasks including part- of-speech tagging, chunking and named 
entity recognition. Instead of exploiting specific features carefully optimized 
for each task, our solution only uses one set of task-independent features and 
internal representations learnt from unlabeled text for all tasks. Requiring no 
task specific knowledge or sophisticated feature engi- neering, our approach 
gets nearly state-of- the-art performance in all these three tag- ging tasks.
-The recently introduced continuous Skip-gram model is an efficient method for 
learning high-quality distributed vector representations that capture a large 
num- ber of precise syntactic and semantic word relationships. In this paper we 
present several extensions that improve both the quality of the vectors and the 
training speed. By subsampling of the frequent words we obtain significant 
speedup and also learn more regular word representations. We also describe a 
simple alterna- tive to the hierarchical softmax called negative sampling.
-An inherent limitation of word representations is their indifference to word 
order and their inability to represent idiomatic phrases. For example, the 
meanings of “Canada” and “Air” cannot be easily combined to obtain 
“Air Canada”. Motivated by this example, we present a simple method for 
finding phrases in text, and show that learning good vector representations for 
millions of phrases is possible.
-We extend the word2vec framework to capture meaning across languages. The 
input consists of a source text and a word-aligned parallel text in a second 
language. The joint word2vec tool then repre- sents words in both languages 
within a common “semantic” vector space. The result can be used to enrich 
lexicons of under-resourced languages, to identify ambiguities, and to perform 
clustering and classification. Experiments were conducted on a parallel 
English-Arabic corpus, as well as on English and Hebrew Biblical texts.
-Unsupervised vector-based approaches to se- mantics can model rich lexical 
meanings, but they largely fail to capture sentiment informa- tion that is 
central to many word meanings and important for a wide range of NLP tasks. We 
present a model that uses a mix of unsuper- vised and supervised techniques to 
learn word vectors capturing semantic term–document in- formation as well as 
rich sentiment content. The proposed model can leverage both con- tinuous and 
multi-dimensional sentiment in- formation as well as non-sentiment annota- 
tions. We instantiate the model to utilize the document-level sentiment 
polarity annotations present in many online documents (e.g. star ratings). We 
evaluate the model using small, widely used sentiment and subjectivity cor- 
pora and find it out-performs several previ- ously introduced methods for 
sentiment clas- sification. We also introduce a large dataset of movie reviews 
to serve as a more robust benchmark for work in this area.
-We report our participation in the contextual suggestion track of TREC 2014 
for which we submitted two runs using a novel ap- proach to complete the 
competition. The goal of the track is to generate suggestions that users might 
fond of given the history of users’ prefer- ence where he or she used to live 
in when they travel to a new city. We tested our new approach in the dataset of 
ClueWeb12-CatB which has been pre-indexed by Luence. Our system represents all 
attractions and user contexts in the continuous vector space learnt by neural 
network language models, and then we learn the user-dependent profile model to 
predict the user’s ratings for the attraction’s websites using Softmax. 
Finally, we rank all the venues by using the generated model according the 
users’ personal preference.
-We present a comprehensive study of eval- uation methods for unsupervised 
embed- ding techniques that obtain meaningful representations of words from 
text. Differ- ent evaluations result in different orderings of embedding 
methods, calling into ques- tion the common assumption that there is one single 
optimal vector representation. We present new evaluation techniques that 
directly compare embeddings with respect to specific queries. These methods re- 
duce bias, provide greater insight, and allow us to solicit data-driven 
relevance judgments rapidly and accurately through crowdsourcing.
-Continuous word and phrase vectors have proven useful in a number of NLP 
tasks. Here we describe our experience using them as a source of features for 
the SemEval-2015 task 3, consisting of two community question an- swering 
subtasks: Answer Selection for cate- gorizing answers as potential, good, and 
bad with regards to their corresponding questions; and YES/NO inference for 
predicting a yes, no, or unsure response to a YES/NO question us- ing all of 
its good answers. Our system ranked 6th and 1st in the English answer selection 
and YES/NO inference subtasks respectively, and 2nd in the Arabic answer 
selection subtask.
-The word2vec model and application by Mikolov et al. have attracted a great 
amount of attention in recent two years. The vector representations of words 
learned by word2vec models have been proven to be able to carry semantic 
meanings and are useful in various NLP tasks. As an increasing number of 
researchers would like to experiment with word2vec, I notice that there lacks a 
material that comprehensively explains the parameter learning process of 
word2vec in details, thus preventing many people with less neural network 
experience from understanding how exactly word2vec works.
-This note provides detailed derivations and explanations of the parameter 
update equations for the word2vec models, including the original continuous 
bag-of-word (CBOW) and skip-gram models, as well as advanced tricks, 
hierarchical soft-max and negative sampling. In the appendix a review is given 
on the basics of neuron network models and backpropagation.
-Over the past few years, neural networks have re-emerged as powerful 
machine-learning
-models, yielding state-of-the-art results in fields such as image recognition 
and speech
-processing. More recently, neural network models started to be applied also to 
textual
-natural language signals, again with very promising results. This tutorial 
surveys neural
-network models from the perspective of natural language processing research, 
in an attempt
-to bring natural-language researchers up to speed with the neural techniques. 
The tutorial
