learn domain specific word embeddings.

## Intro

> Adapting word embeddings, such as jointly capturing
syntactic and semantic information, can further enrich semantic
word representations for several tasks, e.g., sentiment
analysis (Tang et al. 2014), named entity recognition
(Lebret, Legrand, and Collobert 2013), entity-relation extraction
(Weston et al. 2013), etc. (Yu and Dredze 2014)
has introduced a lightly supervised word embedding learning
extending word2vec. They incorporate prior information to the objective
function as a regularization term considering synonymy relations
between words from Wordnet (Fellbaum 1999).

> In this work, we go one step further and investigate if
enriching the word2vec word embeddings trained on unstructured/
unlabeled text with domain specific semantic relations
obtained from knowledge sources (e.g., knowledge
graphs, search query logs, etc.) can help to discover relation
aware word embeddings. Unlike earlier work, **we encode the
information about the relations between phrases, thereby,
entities and relation mentions are all embedded into a low dimensional
vector space**.

While CBOW learns lexical word embeddings from provided text, the RTM learns embeddings of words based on their similarity to other words provided by a knowledge resource (eg. wordnet)
- Joint model  (Yu and Dredze 2014)
combines CBOW and RTM through linear combination
