SMDDH: Singleton Mention detection using Deep Learning in Hindi Text

Mention detection is an important component of coreference resolution system, where mentions such as name, nominal, and pronominals are identified. These mentions can be purely coreferential mentions or singleton mentions (non-coreferential mentions). Coreferential mentions are those mentions in a text that refer to the same entities in a real world. Whereas, singleton mentions are mentioned only once in the text and do not participate in the coreference as they are not mentioned again in the following text. Filtering of these singleton mentions can substantially improve the performance of a coreference resolution process. This paper proposes a singleton mention detection module based on a fully connected network and a Convolutional neural network for Hindi text. This model utilizes a few hand-crafted features and context information, and word embedding for words. The coreference annotated Hindi dataset comprising of 3.6K sentences, and 78K tokens are used for the task. In terms of Precision, Recall, and F-measure, the experimental findings obtained are excellent

Coreference Resolution System for Indonesian Text with Mention Pair Method and Singleton Exclusion using Convolutional Neural Network

Neural network has shown promising performance on coreference resolution systems that uses mention pair method. With deep neural network, it can learn hidden and deep relations between two mentions. However, there is no work on coreference resolution for Indonesian text that uses this learning technique. The state-of-the-art system for Indonesian text only states the use of lexical and syntactic features can improve the existing coreference resolution system. In this paper, we propose a new coreference resolution system for Indonesian text with mention pair method that uses deep neural network to learn the relations of the two mentions. In addition to lexical and syntactic features, in order to learn the representation of the mentions words and context, we use word embeddings and feed them to Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Furthermore, we do singleton exclusion using singleton classifier component to prevent singleton mentions entering any entity clusters at the end. Achieving 67.37% without singleton exclusion, 63.27% with trained singleton classifier, and 75.95% with gold singleton classifier on CoNLL average F1 score, our proposed system outperforms the state-of-the-art system
