There is a recent interest in investigating few-shot NER, where the low-resource target domain has different label sets compared with a resource-rich source domain. Existing methods use a similarity-based metric. However, they cannot make…

Joint punctuated and normalized automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims at outputing transcripts with and without punctuation and casing. This task remains challenging due to the lack of paired speech and punctuated text data in most ASR…

Telephone transcription data can be very noisy due to speech recognition errors, disfluencies, etc. Not only that annotating such data is very challenging for the annotators, but also such data may have lots of annotation errors even after…

Named entity recognition (NER), a task that identifies and categorizes named entities such as persons or organizations from text, is traditionally framed as a multi-class classification problem. However, this approach often overlooks the…

Audio-visual speech recognition has received a lot of attention due to its robustness against acoustic noise. Recently, the performance of automatic, visual, and audio-visual speech recognition (ASR, VSR, and AV-ASR, respectively) has been…

Although Vietnamese is the 17th most popular native-speaker language in the world, there are not many research studies on Vietnamese machine reading comprehension (MRC), the task of understanding a text and answering questions about it. One…

We present an analysis of the performance of Federated Learning in a paradigmatic natural-language processing task: Named-Entity Recognition (NER). For our evaluation, we use the language-independent CoNLL-2003 dataset as our benchmark…

The automatic extraction of character networks from literary texts is generally carried out using natural language processing (NLP) cascading pipelines. While this approach is widespread, no study exists on the impact of low-level NLP tasks…

Punctuation restoration is an important task in automatic speech recognition (ASR) which aim to restore the syntactic structure of generated ASR texts to improve readability. While punctuated texts are abundant from written documents, the…

Code-switching (CS) presents a significant challenge for general Auto-Speech Recognition (ASR) systems. Existing methods often fail to capture the sub tle phonological shifts inherent in CS scenarios. The challenge is particu larly…

Inspired by recent successes in neural machine translation and image caption generation, we present an attention based encoder decoder model (AED) to recognize Vietnamese Handwritten Text. The model composes of two parts: a DenseNet for…

Named Entity Recognition (NER) aims to extract and classify entity mentions in the text into pre-defined types (e.g., organization or person name). Recently, many works have been proposed to shape the NER as a machine reading comprehension…

Named Entity Recognition (NER) systems play a vital role in NLP applications such as machine translation, summarization, and question-answering. These systems identify named entities, which encompass real-world concepts like locations,…

Deep neural network models have helped named entity (NE) recognition achieve amazing performance without handcrafting features. However, existing systems require large amounts of human annotated training data. Efforts have been made to…

In this paper, we present our approach to extracting structured information from unstructured Electronic Health Records (EHR) [2] which can be used to, for example, study adverse drug reactions in patients due to chemicals in their…

For those languages which use it, capitalization is an important signal for the fundamental NLP tasks of Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Part of Speech (POS) tagging. In fact, it is such a strong signal that model performance on these…

We show-case an application of information extraction methods, such as named entity recognition (NER) and relation extraction (RE) to a novel corpus, consisting of documents, issued by a state agency. The main challenges of this corpus are:…

Named entity recognition (NER) is a natural language processing task (NLP), which aims to identify named entities and classify them like person, location, organization, etc. In the Arabic language, we can find a considerable size of…

In this paper, we propose using deep neural networks to extract important information from Vietnamese legal questions, a fundamental task towards building a question answering system in the legal domain. Given a legal question in natural…

In the modern era of rapidly increasing data volumes, accurately retrieving and recommending relevant documents has become crucial in enhancing the reliability of Question Answering (QA) systems. Recently, Retrieval Augmented Generation…
