Transfer Learning Methods for Domain Adaptation in Technical Logbook Datasets (2022.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Technical logbook data typically has both a domain, the field it comes from, and an application, what it is used for. |
| Approach: | They propose to use domain-specific technical language to identify technical logbook entries by using transfer learning to learn from different domains and from different datasets. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach improves performance in all cases but one of the three domains studied. |
Handling Extreme Class Imbalance in Technical Logbook Datasets (2021.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Technical logbooks are a challenging and under-explored text type in automated event identification. |
| Approach: | They propose a feedback strategy that resamples the training data based on its error in the prediction process. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach provides the best results for four different neural network models trained across a suite of technical logbook datasets from distinct technical domains. |
NLP Tools for Predictive Maintenance Records in MaintNet (2020.aacl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Maintenance logbooks often contain free text fields with domain specific terms, abbreviations, and non-standard spelling . most standard NLP pipelines for pre-processing and annotation are trained on standard contemporary corpora. |
| Approach: | They propose to create an open-source library and data repository for predictive maintenance language datasets and to evaluate the tools available at MaintNet. |
| Outcome: | The proposed tools improve the performance of existing pipelines and improve the quality of the existing ones. |
MaintNet: A Collaborative Open-Source Library for Predictive Maintenance Language Resources (2020.coling-demos)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Maintenance record logbooks are an emerging text type in NLP. maintenance record logbook data is often written in non-standard language with many domain specific technical terms, abbreviations, and non-standardized spelling and grammar. |
| Approach: | They propose to create a collaborative open-source library of technical and domain-specific language resources for maintenance record logbooks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed library provides tools to aid in their (pre-)processing and clustering. |
