Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to systems and processes for emoji word sense disambiguation. In one example process, a word sequence is received. A word-level feature representation is determined for each word of the word sequence and a global semantic representation for the word sequence is determined. For a first word of the word sequence, an attention coefficient is determined based on a congruence between the word-level feature representation of the first word and the global semantic representation for the word sequence. The word-level feature representation of the first word is adjusted based on the attention coefficient. An emoji likelihood is determined based on the adjusted word-level feature representation of the first word. In accordance with the emoji likelihood satisfying one or more criteria, an emoji character corresponding to the first word is presented for display.
