Improving Neural Relation Extraction with Positive and Unlabeled Learning
We present a novel approach to improve the performance of distant supervision
relation extraction with Positive and Unlabeled (PU) Learning. This approach
first applies reinforcement learning to decide whether a sentence is positive
to a given relation, and then positive and unlabeled bags are constructed. In
contrast to most previous studies, which mainly use selected positive instances
only, we make full use of unlabeled instances and propose two new
representations for positive and unlabeled bags. These two representations are
then combined in an appropriate way to make bag-level prediction. Experimental
results on a widely used real-world dataset demonstrate that this new approach
indeed achieves significant and consistent improvements as compared to several
competitive baselines.Comment: 8 pages, AAAI-202
Feature Representation for Online Signature Verification
Biometrics systems have been used in a wide range of applications and have
improved people authentication. Signature verification is one of the most
common biometric methods with techniques that employ various specifications of
a signature. Recently, deep learning has achieved great success in many fields,
such as image, sounds and text processing. In this paper, deep learning method
has been used for feature extraction and feature selection.Comment: 10 pages, 10 figures, Submitted to IEEE Transactions on Information

Crowdsourcing Semantic Label Propagation in Relation Classification
Distant supervision is a popular method for performing relation extraction
from text that is known to produce noisy labels. Most progress in relation
extraction and classification has been made with crowdsourced corrections to
distant-supervised labels, and there is evidence that indicates still more
would be better. In this paper, we explore the problem of propagating human
annotation signals gathered for open-domain relation classification through the
CrowdTruth methodology for crowdsourcing, that captures ambiguity in
annotations by measuring inter-annotator disagreement. Our approach propagates
annotations to sentences that are similar in a low dimensional embedding space,
expanding the number of labels by two orders of magnitude. Our experiments show
significant improvement in a sentence-level multi-class relation classifier.Comment: In publication at the First Workshop on Fact Extraction and
