Deep Word Association:A Flexible Chinese Word Association Method with Iterative Attention Mechanism

  Word association is to predict the subsequent words and phrase,acting as a reminder to accelerate the text-editing process.Existing word association models can only predict the next word inflexibly through a given word vocabulary or a simply back-off N-gram language model.Herein,we propose a deep word association system based on attention mechanism with the following contributions:(1)To the best of our knowledge,this is the first investigation of an attention-based recurrent neural network for word association.In the experiments,we provide a comprehensive study on the attention processes for the word association problem;(2)An novel approach,named DropContext,is proposed to solve the over-fitting problem during attention training procedure;(3)Compared with conventional vocabulary-based methods,our word association system can generate an arbitrary-length string of words that are reasonable;(4)Given information on different hierarchies,the proposed system can flexibly generate associated words accordingly.
