Anchor Displacement
Anchor displacement is a semantic change evaluation method that validates diachronic word embedding results by testing whether the direction of lexical drift computed by a model is consistent with directions established by known philological scholarship.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The evaluation adopts a directional test using anchor displacement to examine whether the direction of the model's semantic drift is consistent with philological evidence.
Directional validation is more linguistically meaningful than merely reporting cosine similarity values, because it corresponds to interpretable historical questions.
