Low-Resource Sequence Labeling via Unsupervised Multilingual Contextualized Representations (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to cross-lingual sequence labeling require bilingual resources and require linguistic knowledge. |
| Approach: | They propose a multilingual language model with deep semantic Alignment to generate language-independent representations for cross-lingual sequence labeling. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art NER and POS performance across European languages and on distant language pairs such as English and Chinese. |
Chunk-based Chinese Spelling Check with Global Optimization (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Chinese spelling check is a challenging task due to the characteristics of the language . previous studies only consider corrections with similar character pronunciation or shape . |
| Approach: | They propose a chunk-based framework to correct single-character and multi-character word errors uniformly. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on three benchmark datasets and optical character recognition datasets. |
MuCGEC: a Multi-Reference Multi-Source Evaluation Dataset for Chinese Grammatical Error Correction (2022.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using a multi-reference multi-source evaluation dataset, Chinese grammatical error correction (CGEC) is relatively scarce. |
| Approach: | They propose a multi-reference multi-source evaluation dataset for Chinese grammar error correction . the dataset contains 7,063 sentences written by Chinese-as-a-Second-Language learners . |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset can be used to evaluate Chinese grammar errors in Chinese. |
SynGEC: Syntax-Enhanced Grammatical Error Correction with a Tailored GEC-Oriented Parser (2022.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to grammatical error correction are unreliable when processing ungrammatically . a new approach is proposed that incorporates dependency syntactic information into the encoder part of GEC models. |
| Approach: | They propose a syntax-enhanced grammatical error correction approach called SynGEC that incorporates dependency syntactic information into the encoder part of GEC models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms strong baselines and achieves competitive performance on mainstream English and Chinese GEC datasets. |
Entity Relation Extraction as Dependency Parsing in Visually Rich Documents (2021.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies on key information extraction from visually rich documents focus on labeling the text within bounding boxes, while relations between words are unexplored. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a dependency parsing model to extract semantic entities from visually rich documents by combining entity labeling and relation extraction tasks. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves 65.96% F1 score on the FUNSD dataset. |
