Detecting changes in the meaning of text after paraphrasing or editing is a chal-
lenging and non-trivial task in natural language processing (NLP). It is implicitly
involved in other tasks such as translation, summarisation, and style transfer. Ap-
proaches to meaning change detection (or paraphrase identification) have evolved as
the field of NLP has developed. Today, deep learning BERT-based models and Large
Language Models (LLMs) provide state-of-the-art results. However, these methods
need more interpretability and control and are computationally expensive. There are
alternative methods based on linguistic and mathematical ideas that can overcome
the shortcomings of LLMs and DL methods or complement them.
We aim to investigate the possibilities and limitations of one such alternative ap-
proach compared to state-of-the-art solutions for the paraphrase identification task. |
