While CLWE enable many multilingual tasks (Klementiev et al., 2012;Guo et al., 2015;Zhang et al., 2016;Ni et al., 2017), most recent work only evaluates CLWE on bilingual lexicon induction (BLI).
a set of test words are translated with a retrieval heuristic (e.g., nearest neighbor search) and compared against gold translations.
