Structural Regularities in Text-based Entity Vector Spaces

1 code implementation25 Jul 2017 Christophe Van Gysel, Maarten de Rijke, Evangelos Kanoulas

We discover how clusterings of experts correspond to committees in organizations, the ability of expert representations to encode the co-author graph, and the degree to which they encode academic rank.

Learning Latent Vector Spaces for Product Search

2 code implementations25 Aug 2016 Christophe Van Gysel, Maarten de Rijke, Evangelos Kanoulas

We introduce a novel latent vector space model that jointly learns the latent representations of words, e-commerce products and a mapping between the two without the need for explicit annotations.

Connecting and Comparing Language Model Interpolation Techniques

no code implementations26 Aug 2019 Ernest Pusateri, Christophe Van Gysel, Rami Botros, Sameer Badaskar, Mirko Hannemann, Youssef Oualil, Ilya Oparin

In this work, we uncover a theoretical connection between two language model interpolation techniques, count merging and Bayesian interpolation.

Error-driven Pruning of Language Models for Virtual Assistants

no code implementations14 Feb 2021 Sashank Gondala, Lyan Verwimp, Ernest Pusateri, Manos Tsagkias, Christophe Van Gysel

We customize entropy pruning by allowing for a keep list of infrequent n-grams that require a more relaxed pruning threshold, and propose three methods to construct the keep list.
