Semantics in natural language processing is largely dependent on contextual relationships between words and entities in a document collection. The context of a word may evolve. For example, the word "apple" currently has two contexts—a fruit and a technology company. The changes in the context of words or entities in text data such as scientific publications and news articles can help us understand the evolution of innovation or events of interest. In this work, we present a new diffusion-based temporal word embedding model that can capture short- and long-term changes in the semantics of entities in different domains. Our model captures how the context of each entity shifts over time. Existing temporal word embeddings capture semantic evolution at a discrete/granular level, aiming to study how a language developed over a long period. Unlike existing temporal embedding methods, our approach provides temporally smooth embeddings, facilitating prediction and trend analysis better than those of existing models. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that our proposed temporal embedding model performs better in sense-making and predicting relationships between words and entities in the future compared to other existing models.
