Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a data set that associates each text segment in a vocabulary of text segments with a respective numeric embedding. In one aspect, a method includes providing, to an image search engine, a search query that includes the text segment; obtaining image search results that have been classified as being responsive to the search query by the image search engine, wherein each image search result identifies a respective image; for each image search result, processing the image identified by the image search result using a convolutional neural network, wherein the convolutional neural network has been trained to process the image to generate an image numeric embedding for the image; and generating a numeric embedding for the text segment from the image numeric embeddings for the images identified by the image search results.
