We introduce the first work to tackle the image retrieval problem as a continuous operation. While the proposed approaches in the literature can be roughly categorized into two main groups: category- and instance-based retrieval, in this…
Pre-trained language models such as BERT have been a key ingredient to achieve state-of-the-art results on a variety of tasks in natural language processing and, more recently, also in information retrieval.Recent research even claims that…
Entity-aware image captioning aims to describe named entities and events related to the image by utilizing the background knowledge in the associated article. This task remains challenging as it is difficult to learn the association between…
This paper introduces a new model that uses named entity recognition, coreference resolution, and entity linking techniques, to approach the task of linking people entities on Wikipedia people pages to their corresponding Wikipedia pages if…
This paper presents the Entity-Duet Neural Ranking Model (EDRM), which introduces knowledge graphs to neural search systems. EDRM represents queries and documents by their words and entity annotations. The semantics from knowledge graphs…
Entity search is a new application meeting either precise or vague requirements from the search engines users. Baidu Cup 2016 Challenge just provided such a chance to tackle the problem of the entity search. We achieved the first place with…
Document coherence describes how much sense text makes in terms of its logical organisation and discourse flow. Even though coherence is a relatively difficult notion to quantify precisely, it can be approximated automatically. This type of…
To cope with the intractability of answering Conjunctive Queries (CQs) and solving Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs), several notions of hypergraph decompositions have been proposed -- giving rise to different notions of width,…

One of the major challenges in coreference resolution is how to make use of entity-level features defined over clusters of mentions rather than mention pairs. However, coreferent mentions usually spread far apart in an entire text, which…
Neural entity linking models are very powerful, but run the risk of overfitting to the domain they are trained in. For this problem, a domain is characterized not just by genre of text but even by factors as specific as the particular…
The traditional object retrieval task aims to learn a discriminative feature representation with intra-similarity and inter-dissimilarity, which supposes that the objects in an image are manually or automatically pre-cropped exactly.…
This paper develops a generalization of the PageRank model of page centralities in the global webgraph of hyperlinks. The webgraph of adjacencies is generalized to a valued directed graph, and the scalar dampening coefficient for walks…
Relevance search is to find top-ranked entities in a knowledge graph (KG) that are relevant to a query entity. Relevance is ambiguous, particularly over a schema-rich KG like DBpedia which supports a wide range of different semantics of…
Keyword-based searches are today's standard in digital libraries. Yet, complex retrieval scenarios like in scientific knowledge bases, need more sophisticated access paths. Although each document somewhat contributes to a domain's body of…
Fine-grained entity typing is a challenging problem since it usually involves a relatively large tag set and may require to understand the context of the entity mention. In this paper, we use entity linking to help with the fine-grained…
All instance perception tasks aim at finding certain objects specified by some queries such as category names, language expressions, and target annotations, but this complete field has been split into multiple independent subtasks. In this…
Entity alignment is to find identical entities in different knowledge graphs (KGs) that refer to the same real-world object. Embedding-based entity alignment techniques have been drawing a lot of attention recently because they can help…
Word frequency-based methods for extractive summarization are easy to implement and yield reasonable results across languages. However, they have significant limitations - they ignore the role of context, they offer uneven coverage of…
The co-occurrence association is widely observed in many empirical data. Mining the information in co-occurrence data is essential for advancing our understanding of systems such as social networks, ecosystem, and brain network. Measuring…
