Study Notes

Contextual Embedding

  • Static embeddings represent each word with a fixed vector, regardless of context.
  • The sentence "The chicken didn't cross the road because it was too tired" highlights the importance of context.
  • The word "it" can have different meanings depending on the context.
  • Contextual embeddings capture the dynamic meaning of words based on their surrounding words, resulting in more accurate representations.
  • In this example, understanding "it" requires understanding the entire sentence, and its meaning shifts based on the context of the chicken being tired.
