**TLDR:** GloVe (Pennington 2014) global co-occurrence matrix approach vs Word2Vec local window: mathematical formulation, weighted least squares objective, X_ij interpretation. FastText (Bojanowski 2017) subword n-gram embedding: 'merhaba' = 'mer' + 'erh' + ... OOV problem solution, ideal for Turkish morphological languages. Performance comparison, which scenario for each.
