Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for Chinese word segmentation have high performance on benchmarks but are limited by the small-scale annotated corpus. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that incorporates a lexicon-based graph convolutional network into the Transformer encoder to improve Chinese word segmentation (CWS) Chinese word is an essential and pre-processing step for many downstream NLP tasks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework captures the information of candidate words and improves performance on benchmarks and datasets. |
