A Training-Free, Alignment-Free Approach to Corporate Intelligence: Application to SEC Filings
Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →The paper introduces a training‑free, alignment‑free method for corporate intelligence that uses deterministic sparse seed vectors to hash word strings into a fixed high‑dimensional basis. By accumulating these seed vectors across sentence contexts, the authors create corpus‑specific semantic signatures that enable rapid document comparison, issuer fingerprinting, vocabulary shift tracking, and thematic sentence extraction—all on standard CPU hardware. Applied to a multi‑year set of SEC filings, the approach reveals distinct semantic profiles for major corporate events such as Boeing’s 737 MAX crisis, Intel’s supply‑chain disruptions, and Bunge’s acquisition of Viterra, with each profile traceable to its source sentences without any domain‑specific training or LLM inference.
