Abstract

Semantic applications typically extract in-formation from intermediate structures de-rived from sentences, such as dependency parse or semantic role labeling. In this pa-per, we study Open Information Extrac-tion's (Open IE) output as an additional in-termediate structure and find that for tasks such as text comprehension, word similar-ity and word analogy it can be very effec-tive. Specifically, for word analogy, Open IE-based embeddings surpass the state of the art. We suggest that semantic applica-tions will likely benefit from adding Open IE format to their set of potential sentence-level structures.
