This document summarizes experiments on bilingual semantic text similarity using various word and sentence embedding approaches. It fine-tunes the COMET machine translation evaluation model on 100,000 parallel English-Hindi sentences and compares the results to other sentence encoders like LaBSE, LASER and SBERT using Pearson correlation. LaBSE and SBERT are found to give the best results. Future work could include fine-tuning models on larger data to potentially achieve better performance.
