Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| group-sparse (l2,1) penalty joint estimator vs gold-only and proxy-only estimators | word embeddings with synthetic low-data setting (ng=50, np=5000, d=20) · synthetic data | Frobenius error of Theta_g: error ~4% of proxy and ~2% of gold | Helped |
| group-sparse penalty on GloVe (joint estimator) vs Mittens (l2 penalty) | GloVe domain-word identification · Wikipedia domains (Table 2) | weighted F1-score: Joint beats Mittens in all four domains (e.g., finance 0.2280 vs 0.1912) | Helped |
| group-sparse penalty vs Mittens and CCA/KCCA for domain word identification | single-article Wikipedia finance domain, varying top percentage 10-30% · Wikipedia finance (Figure 2) | weighted F1-score: consistently higher than baselines across thresholds | Helped |
| group-sparse penalty on GloVe vs Mittens | clinical trial eligibility prediction with GloVe embeddings (50 observations) · clinical trial eligibility | F1-score: 0.612554 vs 0.604338 | Helped |
| group-sparse penalty vs Mittens on Word2Vec and Dict2Vec embeddings | clinical trial eligibility prediction · clinical trial eligibility | F1-score: Word2Vec 0.624428 vs 0.604981; Dict2Vec 0.638923 vs 0.627772 | Helped |
| group-sparse penalty on Dict2Vec vs proxy-only embeddings (ablation) | clinical trial eligibility with Dict2Vec · clinical trial eligibility | F1-score: 0.638923 vs 0.623337 (proxy only) | Helped |
