An Empirical Study Of Semantic Similarity In Wordnet And Word2vec, Abram Handler 2014 LSU New Orleans

An Empirical Study Of Semantic Similarity In Wordnet And Word2vec, Abram Handler

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

This thesis performs an empirical analysis of Word2Vec by comparing its output to WordNet, a well-known, human-curated lexical database. It finds that Word2Vec tends to uncover more of certain types of semantic relations than others -- with Word2Vec returning more hypernyms, synonomyns and hyponyms than hyponyms or holonyms. It also shows the probability that neighbors separated by a given cosine distance in Word2Vec are semantically related in WordNet. This result both adds to our understanding of the still-unknown Word2Vec and helps to benchmark new semantic tools built from word vectors.


Southern Language, Ideology, And Identity In A High School Sorority, Sara Lide 2014 University of South Carolina - Columbia

Southern Language, Ideology, And Identity In A High School Sorority, Sara Lide

Theses and Dissertations

Drawing on sociolinguistic and linguistic anthropological methods, this study addresses the issues of how Southern language practices and language ideologies relate and how indexical meanings and social identities emerge through linguistic interaction. As a study that examines the language of a group …
