Title: Using meaning instead of words to track topics
Authors: Judicael Poumay, Ashwin Ittoo
Abstract summary: Currently, all existing topic tracking methods use lexical information by matching word usage. We explore a novel semantic-based method using word embeddings. Our results show that a semantic-based approach to topic tracking is on par with the lexical approach but makes different mistakes.

Abstract: The ability to monitor the evolution of topics over time is extremely valuable for businesses. Currently, all existing topic tracking methods use lexical information by matching word usage. However, no studies has ever experimented with the use of semantic information for tracking topics. Hence, we explore a novel semantic-based method using word embeddings. Our results show that a semantic-based approach to topic tracking is on par with the lexical approach but makes different mistakes. This suggest that both methods may complement each other.

SLAck: Semantic, Location, and Appearance Aware Open-Vocabulary Tracking [89.43370214059955]
Open-vocabulary Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) aims to generalize trackers to novel categories not in the training set. We present a unified framework that jointly considers semantics, location, and appearance priors in the early steps of association. Our method eliminates complex post-processings for fusing different cues and boosts the association performance significantly for large-scale open-vocabulary tracking.

Term-community-based topic detection with variable resolution [0.0]
Network-based procedures for topic detection in huge text collections offer an intuitive alternative to probabilistic topic models. We present a method that is especially designed with the requirements of domain experts in mind. We demonstrate the application of our method with a widely used corpus of general news articles and show the results of detailed social-sciences expert evaluations.

Fake it Till You Make it: Self-Supervised Semantic Shifts for Monolingual Word Embedding Tasks [58.87961226278285]
We propose a self-supervised approach to model lexical semantic change. We show that our method can be used for the detection of semantic change with any alignment method. We illustrate the utility of our techniques using experimental results on three different datasets.

Context Dependent Semantic Parsing: A Survey [56.69006903481575]
semantic parsing is the task of translating natural language utterances into machine-readable meaning representations. Currently, most semantic parsing methods are not able to utilize contextual information. To address this issue, context dependent semantic parsing has recently drawn a lot of attention.
