A good embedding provides vector representations of words such that the relationship between two vectors mirrors the linguistic relationship between the two words. Despite the growing interest in vector representations of semantic information, there has been relatively little work on direct evaluations of these models. In this work, we explore several approaches to measuring the quality of neural word embeddings. In particular, we perform a comprehensive analysis of evaluation methods and introduce novel methods that can be implemented through crowdsourcing, providing better insights into the relative strengths of different embeddings.",

First, this is the first paper to conduct a comprehensive study covering a wide range of evaluation criteria and popular embedding techniques.

We show that using different criteria results in different relative orderings of embeddings. These results indicate that embedding methods should be compared in the context of a specific task, e.g., linguistic insight or good downstream performance.",

We propose a new approach to evaluation that focuses on direct comparison of embeddings with respect to individual queries rather than overall summary scores. Because we phrase all tasks as choice problems rather than ordinal relevance tasks, we can ease the burden of the an-notators. We show that these evaluations can be gathered efficiently from crowdsourcing. Our results also indicate that there is in fact strong correlation between the results of automated similarity evaluation and direct human evaluation. This result justifies the use of offline data, at least for the similarity task.",

The more recent MEN dataset (Bruni et al., 2014) follows a similar strategy, but restricts queries to words that occur as annotations in an image dataset. However, there are more important criteria that should be considered in order to create a diverse dataset: (i) the frequency of the words in the English language (ii) the parts of speech of the words and (iii) abstractness vs. concreteness of the terms.

The main conceptual shortcoming of using correlation-based metrics is that they aggregate scores of different pairseven though these scores can vary greatly in the embedding space. We can view the relatedness task as the task of evaluating a set of rankings, similar to ranking evaluation in Information Retrieval. More specifically, we have one query for each unique query word w and rank all remaining words v in the vocabulary accordingly. The problem now is that we usually cannot directly compare scores from different rankings (Aslam and Montague, 2001) as their scores are not guaranteed to have the same ranges. An even worse case is the following scenario. Assume we use rank correlation as our metric. As a consequence, we need our gold ranking to define an order on all the word pairs. However, this also means that we somehow need to order completely unrelated word pairs; for example, we have to decide whether (dog, cat) is more similar than (banana, apple). Table 1 presents the results on 14 different datasets for the six embedding models. We excluded examples from datasets that contained words not in our vocabulary. For the relatedness and selective preference tasks, the numbers in the table indicate the correlation coefficient of human scores and the cosine similarity times 100.

Different algorithms are, in fact, encoding surprisingly different information that may or may not align with our desired use cases.

First, many algorithms reserve distinct \"intercept\" parameters to absorb frequencybased effects.

For each of the words in the WordSim-353 dataset, we queried for the k = 1000 nearest neighbors. We then looked up their frequency ranks in the training corpus and averaged those ranks over all the query words. We found a strong correlation between the frequency of a word and its position in the ranking of nearest neighbors in our experiments. Figure 4 shows a power law relationship for C&W embeddings between a word's nearest neighbor rank (w.r.t. a query) and the word's frequency rank in the training corpus (nn-rank \u223c 1000 \u2022 corpus-rank 0.17 ). This is a concern: the frequency of a word in the language plays a critical role in word processing of humans as well (Cattell, 1886) . As a consequence, we need to explicitly consider word frequency as a factor in the experiment design. Also, the above results mean that the commonly-used cosine similarity in the embedding space for the intrinsic tasks gets polluted by frequency-based effects. We believe that further research should address how to better measure linguistic relationships between words in the embedding space, e.g., by learning a custom metric. Mikolov et al. (2013b) demonstrate that certain linguistic regularities exist in the embedding space. The authors show that by doing simple vector arithmetic in the embedding space, one can solve various syntactic and semantic analogy tasks. This is different to previous work, which phrased the analogy task as a classification problem (Turney, 2008) . Surprisingly, word embed-dings seem to capture even more complex linguistic properties. Chen et al. (2013) show that word embeddings even contain information about regional spellings (UK vs. US), noun gender and sentiment polarity.",

Intrinsic evaluations measure the quality of word vectors by directly measuring correlation between semantic relatedness and geometric relatedness, usually through inventories of query terms. Focusing on intrinsic measures, compare word embeddings against distributional word vectors on a variety of query inventories and tasks. Faruqui and Dyer (2014) provide a website that allows the automatic evaluation of embeddings on a number of query inventories. Gao et al. (2014) publish an improved query inventory for the analogical reasoning task. Finally, Tsvetkov et al. (2015) propose a new intrinsic measure that better correlates with extrinsic performance. However, all these evaluations are done on precollected inventories and mostly limited to local metrics like relatedness.",

We present a novel evaluation framework based on direct comparisons between embeddings that provides more fine-grained analysis and supports simple, crowdsourced relevance judgments. We also present a novel Coherence task that measures our intuition that neighborhoods in the embedding space should be semantically or syntactically related. We find that extrinsic evaluations, although useful for highlighting specific aspects of embedding performance, should not be used as a proxy for generic quality.",
