Nonlinear semantic space based on lexical graph

摘要

Described is a system for generating a semantic space based on the lexical relations between words. The system determines synonym and antonym relations between a set of words. A lexical graph is generated based on the synonym and antonym relations. Manifold embedding of the lexical graph is determined, and Laplacian coordinates of the manifold embedding are assigned as semantic features of the set of words. A quantitative representation of the set of words is generated using the semantic features.
