Bilingual Lexical Induction (BLI) is a core challenge in NLP, it relies on the relative isomorphism of individual embedding spaces. Existing attempts aimed at controlling the relative isomorphism of different embedding spaces fail to incorporate the impact of semantically related words in the model training objective. To address this, we propose GARI that combines the distributional training objectives with multiple isomorphism losses guided by the graph attention network. GARI considers the impact of semantical variations of words in order to define the relative isomorphism of the embedding spaces. Experimental evaluation using the Arabic language data set shows that GARI outperforms the existing research by improving the average P@1 by a relative score of up to 40.95% and 76.80% for in-domain and domain mismatch settings respectively.

Automated construction of bi-lingual dictionaries using monolingual embedding spaces is a core challenge in machine translation. The end performance of these dictionaries relies on the geometric similarity of individual spaces, i.e., their degree of isomorphism. Existing attempts aimed at controlling the relative isomorphism of different spaces fail to incorporate the impact of lexically different but semantically related words in the training objective. To address this, we propose GRI that combines the distributional training objectives with attentive graph convolutions to unanimously consider the impact of lexical variations of semantically similar words required to define/compute the relative isomorphism of multiple spaces. Exper imental evaluation shows that GRI outperforms the existing research by improving the average P@1 by a relative score of upto 63.6%.
