TEXT-TO-VECTORIZED REPRESENTATION TRANSFORMATION

Abstract:

An approach for a fast and accurate word embedding model, "desc2vec," for out-of-dictionary (OOD) words with a model learning from the dictionary descriptions of the word is disclosed. The approach includes determining that a target text element is not in a set of reference text elements, information describing the target text element is obtained. The information comprises a set of descriptive text elements. A set of vectorized representations for the set of descriptive text elements is determined. A target vectorized representation for the target text element is determined based on the set of vectorized representations using a machine learning model. The machine learning model is trained to represent a predetermined association between the set of vectorized representations for the set of descriptive text elements describing the target text element and the target vectorized representation.
