Integrating and Evaluating Neural Word Embeddings in Information Retrieval

Guido Zuccon, Bevan Koopman, Peter Bruza, Leif A. Azzopardi · 2015

Recent advances in neural language models have contributed new methods for learning distributed vector representations of words (also called word embeddings). Two such methods are the continuous bag-of-words model and the skipgram model. These methods have been shown to produce embeddings that capture higher order relationships between words that are highly effective in natural language processing tasks involving the use of word similarity and word analogy. Despite these promising results, there has been little analysis of the use of these word embeddings for retrieval.
