Abstract

This work presents a new and simple approach for fine-tuning pretrained word embeddings for text classification tasks. In this approach, the class in which a term appears, acts as an additional contextual variable during the fine tuning process, and contributes to the final word vector for that term. As a result, words that are used distinctively within a particular class, will bear vectors that are closer to each other in the embedding space and will be more discriminative towards that class. To validate this novel approach, it was applied to three Arabic and two English datasets that have been previously used for text classification tasks such as sentiment analysis and emotion detection. In the vast majority of cases, the results obtained using the proposed approach, improved considerably.
