I’m curious about how you code up all this theory on the first part of the talk and how it relates to cosine similarity, which I might have missed

Hey Lachlan & Hadi, thanks for the talk! I remember Mehrnoosh saying in the zoom chat that the code was not open sourced yet, is it gonna be at some point?

It would be super exciting to use DisCoPy to implement some future experiments, we could work together on defining Lambek Calculus in terms of diagrams, then monoidal functors to numpy would handle all the computation.
