Title
Sentence Meta-Embeddings for Unsupervised Semantic Textual Similarity
Abstract
We address the task of unsupervised Semantic Textual Similarity (STS) by ensembling diverse pre-trained sentence encoders into sentence meta-embeddings. We apply and extend different meta-embedding methods from the word embedding literature, including dimensionality reduction (Yin and Sch\"utze, 2016), generalized Canonical Correlation Analysis (Rastogi et al., 2015) and cross-view autoencoders (Bollegala and Bao, 2018). We set a new unsupervised State of The Art (SoTA) on the STS Benchmark and on the STS12-STS16 datasets, with gains of between 3.7% and 6.4% Pearson's r over single-source systems.
