Kaggle Chief Data Scientist, Word2Vec “is a really, really, really big deal”
- sp332 12y agoSome reason you're posting this now? It was big news back in 2013.
- biomimic 12y agoWord2Vec is part of a Kaggle competition to classify sentiment of movie reviews from rotten tomatoes. There seems to be a better method than word2vec from berkeley lab. I found that interesting considering the impact Jeremy Howard said word2vec could have.
- PaulHoule 12y agoSimilar things have been around for a long time. For instance, you can train something like LDA on the contexts that words appear in. Also I've seen a system that uses a neural net to generate a 16,000-bit vector and very interesting things happen when you use AND and OR.
- biomimic 12y agoAgreed. I once used a rich vector space model to answer natural language questions related to geography with a similar approach.
