Agricultural Research Word Vectors

This model was originally trained for use in a recommendation system to the Ag Data Commons that will automatically link viewers of one dataset to other directly relevant datasets and research papers that they may be interested in. It was also used to determine the similarities and differences between projects within ARS’ National Programs and create a visualization layer to allow leaders to explore and manage their programs easily.

This model was generated using the Word2Vec model, starting with a set of word vectors trained on Google News articles, and further training it on the titles+abstracts from PubAg and the titles+descriptions from Ag Data Commons. This model was trained using a vector length of 300 and the Continuous Bag of Words version of the algorithm with negative sampling.

This word vector model could be used for any Natural-Language Processing applications involving text with a large amount of agricultural research vocabulary.
