Building Lexical Representations Dynamically Using Artificial Neural Networks

The topic of this paper is the development of dynamic lexical representations using artificial neural networks. In previous work on connectionist natural language processing a lot of approaches have experimented with manually encoded lexicon representations for words. However from a cognitive point of view as well as an engineering point of view it is difficult to find appropriate representations for the lexicon entries for a given task. In this context, this paper explores the use of building word representations during a training process for a particular task. Using simple recurrent networks, principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering we show how lexical representations can be formed dynamically, especially for neural network modules in large, real-world, computational speech-language models.
