How good are detection proposals, really?
Current top performing Pascal VOC object detectors employ detection proposals
to guide the search for objects thereby avoiding exhaustive sliding window
search across images. Despite the popularity of detection proposals, it is
unclear which trade-offs are made when using them during object detection. We
provide an in depth analysis of ten object proposal methods along with four
baselines regarding ground truth annotation recall (on Pascal VOC 2007 and
ImageNet 2013), repeatability, and impact on DPM detector performance. Our
findings show common weaknesses of existing methods, and provide insights to
choose the most adequate method for different settings
Task-specific Word Identification from Short Texts Using a Convolutional Neural Network
Task-specific word identification aims to choose the task-related words that
best describe a short text. Existing approaches require well-defined seed words
or lexical dictionaries (e.g., WordNet), which are often unavailable for many
applications such as social discrimination detection and fake review detection.
However, we often have a set of labeled short texts where each short text has a
task-related class label, e.g., discriminatory or non-discriminatory, specified
by users or learned by classification algorithms. In this paper, we focus on
identifying task-specific words and phrases from short texts by exploiting
their class labels rather than using seed words or lexical dictionaries. We
consider the task-specific word and phrase identification as feature learning.
We train a convolutional neural network over a set of labeled texts and use
score vectors to localize the task-specific words and phrases. Experimental
results on sentiment word identification show that our approach significantly
outperforms existing methods. We further conduct two case studies to show the
effectiveness of our approach. One case study on a crawled tweets dataset
demonstrates that our approach can successfully capture the
discrimination-related words/phrases. The other case study on fake review
detection shows that our approach can identify the fake-review words/phrases.Comment: accepted by Intelligent Data Analysis, an International Journa
