Arabic word analogies and semantics of simple phrases

Original language description

Vector semantic spaces, in which a multi-dimensional numeric vector is used to represent the meaning of a word, are making new natural language applications possible. Word analogies have become a standard tool to evaluate semantic spaces. They also teach us something about what kinds of information the vectors in the semantic space can embody. Arabic orthography has morphological constructs which are realized in syntax in some other languages: the presence or absence of the article; prepositional prefixes; verbs with object suffixes can constitute an entire sentence. The structured word-forms offer the opportunity to study how vector representations of meaning interact in the semantic space to form verb phrases, noun phrases, and prepositional phrases. We provide a corpus of Arabic analogies focused on the morphological constructs which can participate in some of these phrases. We conducted an examination of ten different semantic spaces to see which of them is most appropriate for this set of analogies, and we illustrate the use of the corpus to examine phrase-building.
