Improving Cross-Domain Chinese Word Segmentation with Word Embeddings (N19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to Chinese word segmentation (CWS) are character-based and word-based . character-driven approaches use conditional random field models to label sequences, with complex hand-crafted discrete features. |
| Approach: | They propose a semi-supervised word-based approach to improve cross-domain Chinese word segmentation given a baseline segmenter. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on five datasets covering domains in novels, medicine, and patent. |
