/**
* Word embedding. Word embedding is the collective name for a set
* of language modeling and feature learning techniques in natural
* language processing where words or phrases from the vocabulary
* are mapped to vectors of real numbers. Conceptually it involves
* a mathematical embedding from a space with many dimensions per
* word to a continuous vector space with a much lower dimension.
*
* Methods to generate this mapping include neural networks,
* dimensionality reduction on the word co-occurrence matrix,
* probabilistic models, explainable knowledge base method,
* and explicit representation in terms of the context in
* which words appear.
*
* Word and phrase embeddings, when used as the underlying input
* representation, have been shown to boost the performance in
* NLP tasks such as syntactic parsing and sentiment analysis.
