Cross-Lingual Word Embeddings
The majority of natural language processing (NLP) is English language processing, and while there is good language technology support for (standard varieties of) English, support for Albanian, Burmese, or Cebuano--and most other languages--remains limited. Being able to bridge this digital divide is important for scientific and democratic reasons but also represents an enormous growth potential. A key challenge for this to happen is learning to align basic meaning-bearing units of different languages.In this book, the authors survey and discuss recent and historical work on supervised and unsupervised learning of such alignments. Specifically…

Über den Autor
Anders Søgaard is a father of three and a published poet, as well as a Full Professor in Computer Science the University of Copenhagen. He is currently funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, the Lundbeck Foundation, and the Innovation Fund Denmark; before that, he held an ERC Starting Grant and a Google Focused Research Award. He has won best paper awards at NAACL, EACL, CoNLL, etc. He previously wrote Semi-Supervised Learning and Domain Adaptation in NLP (Morgan & Claypool, 2013) and Cross-Lingual Word Embeddings (Morgan & Claypool, 2019), the latter with co-authors Ivan Vulic, Sebastian Ruder, and Manaal Faruqui.Ivan Vulic is a Senior Research Associate in the Language Technology Lab at the University of Cambridge since 2015. Ivan holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from KU Leuven, having achieved summa cum laude in 2014 on Unsupervised Algorithms for Cross-lingual Text Analysis, Translation Mining, and Information Retrieval. He is interested in representation learning, human language understanding, distributional, lexical, and multi-modal semantics inmonolingual and multilingual contexts, and transfer learning for enabling cross-lingual NLP applications. He has co-authored more than 60 peer-reviewed research papers published in top-tier journals and conference proceedings in NLP and IR. He co-lectured a tutorial on monolingual and multilingual topic models and applications at ECIR 2013 and WSDM 2014, a tutorial onword vector space specialisation at EACL 2017 and ESSLLI 2018, a tutorial on cross-lingual word representations at EMNLP 2017, and a tutorial on deep learning for conversational AI at NAACL 2018.Sebastian Ruder is a Research Scientist at DeepMind. He obtained his Ph.D. in Natural Lan-guage Processing at the National University of Ireland, Galway in 2019. He is interested intransfer learning and cross-lingual learning and has published widely read reviews as well asmore than ten peer-reviewed research papers in top-tier conference proceedings in NLP.Manaal Faruqui is a Senior Research Scientist at Google, working on industrial scale NLP and ML problems. He obtained his Ph.D. in the Language Technologies Institute at Carnegie Mellon University while working on representation learning, multilingual learning, and distributional and lexical semantics. He received a best paper award at NAACL 2015 for his work on incorporating semantic knowledge in word vector representations. He serves on the editorial board of the Computational Linguistics journal and has been an area chair for several ACL conferences.
