@Ada Tensors are indeed arrays with some strong mathematical definitions. We could continue this conversation or definition and pursue another topic of how to define these symbolic/scientific/computational systems. Clearly, tensors might look like tables but not anything in other systems such as hyperboles.
Back to this thread author original question, there are loads of pointers if you know. Dear lbrtchx
Yes, indeed, it is possible for a string (or an _expression_ or a lexical item... etc.) to refer to different things based on different contexts. One could refer to it as polysemy (or not). Many fields have shared vocabulary items. Same character or character strings can be used in ways that show differences "in nature"/"by definition" (i.e. different due to discipline-specific, historical reasons) or differences in practice (which could be more general/generalized). Esp. in an engineering field nowadays, a term used for/in practice is likely to gradually take over the one favored historically over time.
Then again, Is your inquiry more about vocabulary use, or for what reason are you asking your question(s)?
Best Ada

Oh!

By the way, this is probably veering off-topic for corpora-l.
datascience.stackexchange.com is quite a good place for questions about
transformers, embeddings, NLP, etc.
