摘要:

语义变化可以反映数百年来信仰的变化,但是否可以在短时间内检测到快速变化的社区的趋势则不太清楚。我们提出了语义坐标分析,这是一种基于语义变化的方法,可以在很短的时间内揭示一个领域的出版物(我们以AI为例)中语言的变化。我们使用GloVe风格的概率比来量化从多个视角的移动方向和范围。我们表明,语义坐标分析可以检测到反映研究兴趣变化的变化(例如,“深度”进一步从“严格”转向“神经”),以及研究活动的发展(例如,“协作”中的“竞争”比“协作”中的“竞争”要少)。

英文摘要:

Semantic shifts can reflect changes in beliefs across hundreds of years, but it is less clear whether trends in fast-changing communities across a short time can be detected. We propose semantic coordinates analysis, a method based on semantic shifts, that reveals changes in language within publications of a field (we use AI as example) across a short time span. We use GloVe-style probability ratios to quantify the shifting directions and extents from multiple viewpoints. We show that semantic coordinates analysis can detect shifts echoing changes of research interests (e.g., "deep" shifted further from "rigorous" to "neural"), and developments of research activities (e,g., "collaboration" contains less "competition" than "collaboration"), based on publications spanning as short as 10 years.
