This work presents an approach to generate Sparse Distributed Representations (SDRs) for word representations using singular value decomposition (SVD). SDRs provide a sparse, biologically inspired alternative to traditional dense word embeddings such as Word2Vec and GloVe, with advantages in terms of robustness to noise and reduced memory requirements. By applying SVD to the co-occurrence matrix of a large corpus, latent semantic structures are extracted and converted into sparse vectors. Experiments show that the generated SDRs can partially represent semantic relationships well, but reach their limits with complex or ambiguous terms.

摘要

This work presents an approach to generate Sparse Distributed Representations (SDRs) for word representations using singular value decomposition (SVD). SDRs provide a sparse, biologically inspired alternative to traditional dense word embeddings such as Word2Vec and GloVe, with advantages in terms of robustness to noise and reduced memory requirements. By applying SVD to the co-occurrence matrix of a large corpus, latent semantic structures are extracted and converted into sparse vectors. Experiments show that the generated SDRs can partially represent semantic relationships well, but reach their limits with complex or ambiguous terms.
