Discourse parsing, the task of analyzing the internal rhetorical structure of texts, is a challenging problem in natural language processing. Despite the recent advances in neural models, the lack of large-scale, high-quality corpora for…
Dialogue relation extraction (DRE) aims to detect the relation between two entities mentioned in a multi-party dialogue. It plays an important role in constructing knowledge graphs from conversational data increasingly abundant on the…
We propose a topic-dependent attention model for sentiment classification and topic extraction. Our model assumes that a global topic embedding is shared across documents and employs an attention mechanism to derive local topic embedding…
Entity and relation extraction is the necessary step in structuring medical text. However, the feature extraction ability of the bidirectional long short term memory network in the existing model does not achieve the best effect. At the…
We explore methods to extract relations between named entities from free text in an unsupervised setting. In addition to standard feature extraction, we develop a novel method to re-weight word embeddings. We alleviate the problem of…
Sentence-level relation extraction mainly aims to classify the relation between two entities in a sentence. The sentence-level relation extraction corpus often contains data that are difficult for the model to infer or noise data. In this…
The tasks of aspect identification and term extraction remain challenging in natural language processing. While supervised methods achieve high scores, it is hard to use them in real-world applications due to the lack of labelled datasets.…
Relation Extraction is an important task in Information Extraction which deals with identifying semantic relations between entity mentions. Traditionally, relation extraction is carried out after entity extraction in a "pipeline" fashion,…
Existing research studies on cross-sentence relation extraction in long-form multi-party conversations aim to improve relation extraction without considering the explainability of such methods. This work addresses that gap by focusing on…
Extracting entities and relations is an essential task of information extraction. Triplets extracted from a sentence might overlap with each other. Previous methods either did not address the overlapping issues or solved overlapping issues…
Aspect based sentiment analysis (ABSA) deals with the identification of the sentiment polarity of a review sentence towards a given aspect. Deep Learning sequential models like RNN, LSTM, and GRU are current state-of-the-art methods for…
Distant supervision for relation extraction enables one to effectively acquire structured relations out of very large text corpora with less human efforts. Nevertheless, most of the prior-art models for such tasks assume that the given text…
Extractive Text Summarization is the process of selecting the most representative parts of a larger text without losing any key information. Recent attempts at extractive text summarization in Bengali, either relied on statistical…
Entity linking is an indispensable operation of populating knowledge repositories for information extraction. It studies on aligning a textual entity mention to its corresponding disambiguated entry in a knowledge repository. In this paper,…
RST-style discourse parsing plays a vital role in many NLP tasks, revealing the underlying semantic/pragmatic structure of potentially complex and diverse documents. Despite its importance, one of the most prevailing limitations in modern…
Self-attention has become an important and widely used neural network component that helped to establish new state-of-the-art results for various applications, such as machine translation and automatic speech recognition (ASR). However, the…
Recognising dialogue acts (DA) is important for many natural language processing tasks such as dialogue generation and intention recognition. In this paper, we propose a dual-attention hierarchical recurrent neural network for DA…
Measuring entity relatedness is a fundamental task for many natural language processing and information retrieval applications. Prior work often studies entity relatedness in static settings and an unsupervised manner. However, entities in…
Relation Extraction (RE) is a fundamental task of information extraction, which has attracted a large amount of research attention. Previous studies focus on extracting the relations within a sentence or document, while currently…
Conventional approaches to relation extraction usually require a fixed set of pre-defined relations. Such requirement is hard to meet in many real applications, especially when new data and relations are emerging incessantly and it is…
