2. 2 Introduction • Contrasting meaning is a basic aspect of

   semantics • This embedding models achieve 92% F-score on the GRE dataset, which is “most contrasting word” questions (Mohammad et al.,2008) • Direction for this basic semantics modeling problem.

3. 3 Related work • The terms contrasting, opposite, and antonym

   have different definitions in the literature. – Contrasting word pairs having some non-zero degree of binary incompatibility • Word Embedding • Modeling Contrasting Meaning – PILSA (Yih et al., 2012) get a further improvement on the GRE benchmark, where an 81% of F-score – Bayesian probabilistic tensor factorization (Zhang et al., 2014)

5. 5 Top Hidden Layer(s) • It is widely recognized that

   contrasting words – e.g., good and bad • Intend to appear in similar context or co-occur with each other.

6. 6 Stochastic Contrast Embedding (SCE) • Hinton and Roweis (2002)

   proposed a stochastic neighbor embedding (SNE) framework. • Use the concept of “neighbors” to encode the contrast pairs • Three respects are different from SNE – “neighbors” here are actually contrasting pairs – Train SCE using only lexical resources – Semantic closeness or contrast are not independent

7. 7 Marginal Contrast Embedding (MCE) • This paper used another

   training criteria, motivated by pairwise ranking approach (Cohen et al., 1998) • This motivation – To explicitly enforce the distances between contrasting pairs to be larger than distances between unrelated word pairs. – Enforce the distances between semantically close pairs by another margin

8. 8 Corpus Relatedness Modeling (CRM) • Mohammad et al., (2013)

   proposed a degree of contrast hypothesis: – “if a pair of words, A and B, are contrasting, then their degree of contrast is proportional to their tendency to co-occur in a large corpus.” • Use the skip-gram model (Mikolov et al., 2013) to learn the relatedness embedding

9. 9 Semantic Differential Reconstruction (SDR) • Using factor analysis, Osgood

   et al.,(1957) identified three dimensions of semantic that account for most of the variation in the connotative meaning of adjective. • Three dimensions – Evaluative: good-bad – Potency: strong-weak – Activity: active-passive

10. 10 Experiment Set-Up • Data – Used the “most contrasting

    word” questions collected by Mohammad et al., (2008) • Lexical Resources – WordNet (Miller, 1995) version 3.0 – Roget's Thesaurus (Kipfer, 2009) • Google Billion-Word Corpus • Evaluation Metric

11. 11 Experiment Results • The result is presented in Table

    1 and the F-score on test set is 91% • The pie graph in Figure 2 shows the percentages of target-gold-answer word pairs • Figure 3 draws the envelope of histogram of cosine distance between all target-choice • The performances of different models are show in Figure 4
