ExTaSem! Extending, Taxonomizing and Semantifying Domain Terminologies
We introduce EXTASEM!, a novel approach for the automatic learning of lexical taxonomies from domain terminologies. First, we exploit a very large semantic network to collect thousands of in-domain textual definitions. Second, we extract (hyponym, hypernym) pairs from each definition with a CRF-based algorithm trained on manuallyvalidated data. Finally, we introduce a graph induction procedure which constructs a full-fledged taxonomy where each edge is weighted according to its domain pertinence. EXTASEM! achieves state-of-the-art results in the following taxonomy evaluation experiments: (1) Hypernym discovery, (2) Reconstructing gold standard taxonomies, and (3) Taxonomy quality according to structural measures. We release weighted taxonomies for six domains for the use and scrutiny of the communit
Inferring Concept Hierarchies from Text Corpora via Hyperbolic Embeddings
We consider the task of inferring is-a relationships from large text corpora.
For this purpose, we propose a new method combining hyperbolic embeddings and
Hearst patterns. This approach allows us to set appropriate constraints for
inferring concept hierarchies from distributional contexts while also being
able to predict missing is-a relationships and to correct wrong extractions.
Moreover -- and in contrast with other methods -- the hierarchical nature of
hyperbolic space allows us to learn highly efficient representations and to
improve the taxonomic consistency of the inferred hierarchies. Experimentally,
we show that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on several
commonly-used benchmarks
ONTOLOGY BASED TECHNICAL SKILL SIMILARITY
Online job boards have become a major platform for technical talent procurement and job search. These job portals have given rise to challenging matching and search problems. The core matching or search happens between technical skills of the job requirements and the candidate\u27s profile or keywords. The extensive list of technical skills and its polyonymous nature makes it less effective to perform a direct keyword matching. This results in substandard job matching or search results which misses out a closely matching candidate on account of it not having the exact skills. It is important to use a semantic similarity measure between skills to improve the relevance of the results. This paper proposes a semantic similarity measure between technical skills using a knowledge based approach. The approach builds an ontology using DBpedia and uses it to derive a similarity score. Feature based ontology similarity measures are used to derive a similarity score between two skills. The ontology also helps in resolving a base skill from its multiple representations. The paper discusses implementation of custom ontology, similarity measuring system and performance of the system in comparing technical skills. The proposed approach performs better than the Resumatcher system in finding the similarity between skills. Keywords
Foundations and modelling of dynamic networks using Dynamic Graph Neural Networks: A survey
Dynamic networks are used in a wide range of fields, including social network
analysis, recommender systems, and epidemiology. Representing complex networks
as structures changing over time allow network models to leverage not only
structural but also temporal patterns. However, as dynamic network literature
stems from diverse fields and makes use of inconsistent terminology, it is
challenging to navigate. Meanwhile, graph neural networks (GNNs) have gained a
lot of attention in recent years for their ability to perform well on a range
of network science tasks, such as link prediction and node classification.
Despite the popularity of graph neural networks and the proven benefits of
dynamic network models, there has been little focus on graph neural networks
for dynamic networks. To address the challenges resulting from the fact that
this research crosses diverse fields as well as to survey dynamic graph neural
networks, this work is split into two main parts. First, to address the
ambiguity of the dynamic network terminology we establish a foundation of
dynamic networks with consistent, detailed terminology and notation. Second, we
present a comprehensive survey of dynamic graph neural network models using the
proposed terminologyComment: 28 pages, 9 figures, 8 table
