Adversarial Connective-exploiting Networks for Implicit Discourse Relation Classification
Implicit discourse relation classification is of great challenge due to the
lack of connectives as strong linguistic cues, which motivates the use of
annotated implicit connectives to improve the recognition. We propose a feature
imitation framework in which an implicit relation network is driven to learn
from another neural network with access to connectives, and thus encouraged to
extract similarly salient features for accurate classification. We develop an
adversarial model to enable an adaptive imitation scheme through competition
between the implicit network and a rival feature discriminator. Our method
effectively transfers discriminability of connectives to the implicit features,
and achieves state-of-the-art performance on the PDTB benchmark.Comment: To appear in ACL201
End-to-End Multi-View Networks for Text Classification
We propose a multi-view network for text classification. Our method
automatically creates various views of its input text, each taking the form of
soft attention weights that distribute the classifier's focus among a set of
base features. For a bag-of-words representation, each view focuses on a
different subset of the text's words. Aggregating many such views results in a
more discriminative and robust representation. Through a novel architecture
that both stacks and concatenates views, we produce a network that emphasizes
both depth and width, allowing training to converge quickly. Using our
multi-view architecture, we establish new state-of-the-art accuracies on two
benchmark tasks.Comment: 6 page
