Pretrained language models (LMs) are prone to arithmetic errors. Existing work showed limited success in probing numeric values from models' representations, indicating that these errors can be attributed to the inherent unreliability of…

In the era of foundation models and Large Language Models (LLMs), Euclidean space is the de facto geometric setting of our machine learning architectures. However, recent literature has demonstrated that this choice comes with fundamental…

In this paper, we aim to learn a low-dimensional Euclidean representation from a set of constraints of the form "item j is closer to item i than item k". Existing approaches for this "ordinal embedding" problem require expensive…

While many methods for learning vector space embeddings have been proposed in the field of Natural Language Processing, these methods typically do not distinguish between categories and individuals. Intuitively, if individuals are…

We consider the problem of reconstructing an embedding of a compact connected Riemannian manifold in a Euclidean space up to an almost isometry, given the information on intrinsic distances between points from its ``sufficiently large''…

We study the problem of supervised learning a metric space under discriminative constraints. Given a universe $X$ and sets ${\cal S}, {\cal D}\subset {X \choose 2}$ of similar and dissimilar pairs, we seek to find a mapping $f:X\to Y$, into…

Classical multidimensional scaling only works well when the noisy distances observed in a high dimensional space can be faithfully represented by Euclidean distances in a low dimensional space. Advanced models such as Maximum Variance…

Using the $ku$- and $BP$-theoretic versions of Astey's cobordism obstruction for the existence of smooth Euclidean embeddings of stably almost complex manifolds, we prove that, for $e$ greater than or equal to $\alpha(n)$--the number of…

Selectional preferences have long been claimed to be essential for coreference resolution. However, they are mainly modeled only implicitly by current coreference resolvers. We propose a dependency-based embedding model of selectional…
