Learning to Bootstrap for Entity Set Expansion (D19-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing bootstrapping methods for Entity Set Expansion suffer from two problems: 1) delayed feedback and sparse supervision. |
| Approach: | They propose a method that estimates delayed feedback and adaptively scores entities given sparse supervision signals. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can estimate delayed feedback for pattern evaluation and adaptively score entities given sparse supervision signals. |
A Practical Incremental Learning Framework For Sparse Entity Extraction (C18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to extract entities from textual data are expensive and unattractive due to the high cost of training. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that integrates Entity Set Expansion and Active Learning to reduce the cost of data annotation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework reduces the cost of sparse entity annotation by 85% and 45% while maintaining high accuracy. |
Low-resource Entity Set Expansion: A Comprehensive Study on User-generated Text (2022.findings-naacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing benchmarks for entity set expansion (ESE) are limited to well-formed text and well-defined concepts. |
| Approach: | They propose to use user-generated text to assess the generalizability of ESE methods by identifying phenomena such as non-named entities, multifaceted entities and vague concepts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed methods are based on user-generated text to assess their generalizability and performance. |
Global Bootstrapping Neural Network for Entity Set Expansion (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies have shown that end-to-end bootstrapping methods only leverage local semantics rather than global semantics. |
| Approach: | They propose a global-sighted encoder to capture and encode local and global semantics into entity embedding and an attention-guided decoder to sequentially expand new entities based on these embeddables. |
| Outcome: | The proposed network achieves state-of-the-art on two bootstrapping datasets. |
