Akshata Upadhye . Enhancing Semantic Understanding by Visualizing Sentence-Level Embeddings. International Journal of Computer Applications. 185, 46 ( Nov 2023), 20-24. DOI=10.5120/ijca2023923275
The field of Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning is advancing rapidly. Due to these advances, various new architectures to train the language models and various new language models are introduced very frequently. These language models can be used in various applications involving text data. Since the number of choices available are high it is very important to have the right tools to evaluate these language models and in such a scenario visualization can help the researchers understand the semantic relationships within data used to train these models. Additionally, it can also be used to evaluate if the language model used to extract the features from the text data is able to model these semantic relationships. Since text data is typically high dimensional it is necessary to use dimensionality reduction techniques to be able to visualize the text data. Therefore, in this paper various dimensionality reduction techniques are discussed and a demonstration of how UMAP can be used for dimensionality reduction to visualize sentence level embeddings is provided.
