Artificial Intelligence (AI) has huge impact on our daily lives with applications such as voice assistants, facial recognition, chatbots, autonomously driving cars, etc. Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a cross-discipline of AI and…

Mapping the knowledge structure from word co-occurrences in a collection of academic papers has been widely used to provide insight into the topic evolution in an arbitrary research field. In a traditional approach, the paper collection is…

The discovery of small world and scale free properties of many real world networks has revolutionized the way we study, analyze, model and process networks. An important way to analyze these complex networks is to visualize them using graph…

Analyzing the readability of articles has been an important sociolinguistic task. Addressing this task is necessary to the automatic recommendation of appropriate articles to readers with different comprehension abilities, and it further…

With the increasing number of texts made available on the Internet, many applications have relied on text mining tools to tackle a diversity of problems. A relevant model to represent texts is the so-called word adjacency (co-occurrence)…

Epistemic Network Analysis (ENA) is a method for investigating the relational structure of concepts in text by representing co-occurring concepts as networks. Traditional ENA, however, relies heavily on manual expert coding, which limits…

A key challenge in entity linking is making effective use of contextual information to disambiguate mentions that might refer to different entities in different contexts. We present a model that uses convolutional neural networks to capture…

Topological Neural Networks (TNNs) incorporate higher-order relational information beyond pairwise interactions, enabling richer representations than Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Concurrently, topological descriptors based on persistent…

Named entity linking is to map an ambiguous mention in documents to an entity in a knowledge base. The named entity linking is challenging, given the fact that there are multiple candidate entities for a mention in a document. It is…

Tracking entities in procedural language requires understanding the transformations arising from actions on entities as well as those entities' interactions. While self-attention-based pre-trained language encoders like GPT and BERT have…

We introduce extreme summarization, a new single-document summarization task which does not favor extractive strategies and calls for an abstractive modeling approach. The idea is to create a short, one-sentence news summary answering the…

Recently, the structural reading comprehension (SRC) task on web pages has attracted increasing research interests. Although previous SRC work has leveraged extra information such as HTML tags or XPaths, the informative topology of web…

Entity linking, the task of mapping textual mentions to known entities, has recently been tackled using contextualized neural networks. We address the question whether these results -- reported for large, high-quality datasets such as…

Document-level relation extraction aims to extract relations among multiple entity pairs from a document. Previously proposed graph-based or transformer-based models utilize the entities independently, regardless of global information among…

Extracting entities and their relations from text is an important task for understanding massive text corpora. Open information extraction (IE) systems mine relation tuples (i.e., entity arguments and a predicate string to describe their…

Textual analytics based on representations of documents as bags of words have been reasonably successful. However, analysis that requires deeper insight into language, into author properties, or into the contexts in which documents were…

Social networks, such as Twitter, form a heterogeneous information network (HIN) where nodes represent domain entities (e.g., user, content, advertiser, etc.) and edges represent one of many entity interactions (e.g, a user re-sharing…

In this paper, we propose a novel online topic tracking framework, named IEDL, for tracking the topic changes related to deep learning techniques on Stack Exchange and automatically interpreting each identified topic. The proposed framework…

Rapid expansion of social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and Reddit has enabled large-scale analysis of public perceptions on diverse topics, including social issues, politics, natural disasters, and consumer…

Extractive text summarization aims at extracting the most representative sentences from a given document as its summary. To extract a good summary from a long text document, sentence embedding plays an important role. Recent studies have…
