I'm guessing 2 dimensions isn't for this.

Here's a concrete example: "bow" would need to be close to "ribbon" (as in a bow on a present) and also close to "gun" (as a weapon that shoots a projectile), but "ribbon" and "gun" would seem to need be far from each other. How does something like word2vec resolve this? Any transitive relationship would seem to fall afoul of this.




Yes, only more sophisticated embeddings can capture that and it's over 300+ dimensions.


But we still need a measure of "closeness" that is non-transitive.
