We speculate that these differences are potentially due to the use of different data sets, the fact that we use a considerably smaller context window for constructing the word vectors (5 due to the restrictions of Google Ngram corpus vs. 100 in<cite> Reddy et al. (2011)</cite> and 40 in Schulte im Walde et al. (2016b) ) and the use of a compound-centric setting (as described in 4.1).
