Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Originally, the seed dictionaries typically spanned several thousand word pairs BIBREF15 , BIBREF18 , BIBREF19 , but more recent work has shown that CLWEs can be induced with even weaker supervision from small dictionaries spanning several hundred pairs BIBREF20 , identical strings BIBREF21 , or even only shared numerals BIBREF22 . 
 Question: How are seed dictionaries obtained by fully unsupervised methods?
Output (English): the latest CLWE developments almost exclusively focus on fully unsupervised approaches BIBREF23 , BIBREF24 , BIBREF25 , BIBREF26 , BIBREF27 , BIBREF28 , BIBREF29 , BIBREF30 : they fully abandon any source of (even weak) supervision and extract the initial seed dictionary by exploiting topological similarities between pre-trained monolingual embedding spaces
