• Abstract: Automatically learned vector representations of words, also known as "word embeddings", are becoming a basic building block for more and more natural language processing algorithms. There are different ways and tools for constructing word embeddings. Most of the approaches rely on raw texts, the construction items being the word occurrences and/or letter n-grams. More elaborated research is using additional linguistic features extracted after text preprocessing. Morphology is clearly served by vector representations constructed from raw texts and letter n-grams. Syntax and semantics studies may profit more from the vector representations constructed with additional features such as lemma, part-of-speech, syntactic or semantic dependants associated with each word. One of the key objectives of the ReTeRom project is the development of advanced technologies for Romanian natural language processing, including morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis of text. As such, we plan to develop an open-access large library of ready-to-use word embeddings sets, each set being characterized by different parameters: used features (wordforms, letter n-grams, lemmas, POSes etc.), vector lengths, window/context size and frequency thresholds. To this end, the previously created sets of word embeddings (based on word occurrences) on the CoRoLa corpus (P\u{a}i\c{s} and Tufi\c{s}, 2018) are and will be further augmented with new representations learned from the same corpus by using specific features such as lemmas and parts of speech. Furthermore, in order to better understand and explore the vectors, graphical representations will be available by customized interfaces.

  Current state-of-the-art models for natural language understanding require a preprocessing step to convert raw text into discrete tokens. This process known as tokenization relies on a pre-built vocabulary of words or sub-word morphemes. We introduce a novel open-vocabulary language model that adopts a hierarchical two-level approach.

  We propose a model that approximates the human reading pattern of a document and outputs a unique semantic representation for every text span. We base our architecture on a graph representation of the structured text, and we demonstrate that not only can we retrieve semantically similar information across documents but also that the embedding space we generate captures useful semantic information.

  We propose a method for learning word representations that follows this basic strategy. We take advantage of contextualized language models (CLMs) rather than bags of word vectors to encode contexts. We show that this simple strategy leads to high-quality word vectors, which are more predictive of semantic properties than word embeddings and existing CLM-based strategies.

Experiments on 12 natural language understanding and machine translation tasks further verify the effectiveness and the generalization capability of the proposed approach.
