1 Computing Word Senses by Semantic Mirroring and Spectral Graph Partitioning Masters Thesis by Martin Fagerlund Martin Fagerlund, Magnus Merkel, Lars Eldén, Lars Ahrenberg Departments of Mathematics and Computer Science, Linköping University ACL 2010 (LiU) ACL / 37

2 Outline 1 Semantic Mirrors 2 Graph and Spectral Theory Graph theory Spectral theory 3 The Computation of Word Senses 4 Evaluation and Results (LiU) ACL / 37

3 Semantic Mirrors (Dyvik) Use translations to extract information from a bilingual lexicon. Semantically closely related words tend to have strongly overlapping sets of translations. Words with a wide meaning tend to have a higher number of translations, than words with a more narrow meaning. (LiU) ACL / 37

10 Graph theory The weight function. w(v i, v j ) = w(v j, v i ). w(v i, v j ) 0. (LiU) ACL / 37

11 Graph theory - Graphs and Matrices The adjacency matrix. { w(vi, v A(i, j) = j ), if v i and v j are adjacent, 0, otherwise. (LiU) ACL / 37

12 Graph theory - Graphs and Matrices The Laplacian. d(v i ) = j w(v i, v j ). L = D A. D(i, j) = { d(vi ), if i = j, 0, otherwise. (LiU) ACL / 37

13 Graph theory - Graphs and Matrices The Laplacian. d(v i ) = j w(v i, v j ). L = D A. D(i, j) = { d(vi ), if i = j, 0, otherwise. (LiU) ACL / 37

14 Graph theory - Graphs and Matrices The normalised Laplacian. L = D 1/2 LD 1/2. 1 w(v i,v i ) d(v i ), if i = j and d(v i) 0, L = w(v i,v j ) d(vi )d(v j ), if v i and v j are adjacent, 0, otherwise. (LiU) ACL / 37

15 Spectral graph partitioning Compute the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors 0 = λ 0 λ 1... λ n 1, ū 0,..., ū n 1 of L. λ 1 is called the Fiedler value, and ū 1 is called the Fiedler vector. (LiU) ACL / 37

16 Spectral graph partitioning Let ū = (u 1,..., u n ) be the Fiedler vector. Divide the vertices into S and S using a splitting value s: v i S if u i > s v i S if u i s. A few ways of choosing s: bisection: s is the median of {u 1,..., u n }. sign cut: s =0. gap cut: s is a value in the largest gap in the sorted Fiedler vector. (LiU) ACL / 37

39 Evaluation and Results Evaluation Results 10 random words with at least 8 vertices in the graph were evaluated. Both conductance and sparsity were used as a measure. The sense groups are not always completely synonymous with the seed word. The words are often consistent within the sense groups. (LiU) ACL / 37

41 Conclusions and future work Conclusion Our preliminary results indicate that graph partitioning-based semantic mirroring can be developed into an automatic method for computing word senses.
