CorrSim is an evaluation framework and a collection of statistical similarity measures for word vectors described in
Vitalii Zhelezniak, Aleksandar Savkov, April Shen, and Nils Y. Hammerla. Correlation Coefficients and Semantic Textual Similarity, NAACL-HLT 2019.
CorrSet is a a collection of multivariate statistical similarity measures for word vectors described in
Vitalii Zhelezniak, April Shen, Daniel Busbridge, Aleksandar Savkov, and Nils Y. Hammerla. Correlations between Word Vector Sets, EMNLP-IJCNLP 2019.
InfoSim is a collection of mutual information similarity measures for word vectors described in
Vitalii Zhelezniak, Aleksandar Savkov, and Nils Y. Hammerla. Estimating Mutual Information Between Dense Word Embeddings, ACL 2020.
This code is written in Python 3. The requirements are listed in requirements.txt.
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
The experimental framework derived from SentEval evaluates the similarity measures on the following datasets:
| STS 2012 | STS 2013 | STS 2014 | STS 2015 | STS 2016 |
To get all the datasets, run (in data/downstream/):
./get_sts_data.bashThis will automatically download and preprocess the downstream datasets, and store them in data/downstream (warning: for MacOS users, you may have to use p7zip instead of unzip).
Word vectors files must be in a word2vec txt format and are placed in data/word_vectors/.
The mapping from word vector model name to filename is found in evaluation/utils.py.
WORD_VEC_MAP = {
'glove': 'glove.840B.300d.w2vformat.txt',
'word2vec': 'GoogleNews-vectors-negative300.txt',
'fasttext': 'fasttext-crawl-300d-2M.txt'
}All the experiments are located in evaluation. They include
conf_intervals.py- evaluates rank correlation similarities against cosine similarity on STS and computes 95% BCa confidence intervals for the delta in performance.corrsim_eval.py- evaluates rank correlation similarities against cosine similarity on STS and computes fractions of non-normal word and sentence embeddings.wordsim_eval.py- evaluates rank correlation similarities against cosine similarity and Pearson correlation on word-level tasks.corrset_eval.py- evaluates multivariate correlations on STS (EMNLP-IJCNLP 2019).infosim_eval.py- evaluates the KSG estimator of mutual information on STS (ACL 2020).
