Papers with annotation methods
Self-Cleaning: Improving a Named Entity Recognizer Trained on Noisy Data with a Few Clean Instances (2024.findings-naacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to train named entity recognition models on noisy data are expensive and time-intensive to accumulate. |
| Approach: | They propose to denoise noisy NER data with guidance from a small set of clean instances. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method can improve on large-scale datasets with a small guidance set. |
TRANSLATIONCORRECT: A Unified Framework for Machine Translation Post-Editing with Predictive Error Assistance (2025.acl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Current workflows for machine translation (MT) post-editing and research data collection are inefficient and time-consuming. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that combines MT and error prediction within a single environment. |
| Outcome: | **TranslationCorrect** exports high-quality span-based annotations in the Error Span Annotation format, using an error taxonomy inspired by Multidimensional Quality Metrics (MQM). |
D-CALM: A Dynamic Clustering-based Active Learning Approach for Mitigating Bias (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Infusing clustering with active learning with AL can overcome the bias issue of both AL and traditional annotation methods while exploiting AL’s annotation efficiency. |
| Approach: | They propose an algorithm that dynamically adjusts clustering and annotation efforts in response to an estimated classifier error-rate. |
| Outcome: | The proposed algorithm outperforms baseline AL approaches with pretrained transformers and traditional Support Vector Machines on eight datasets for emotion, hatespeech, dialog act, and book type detection tasks. |
