Economic event detection in company-specific news text
This paper presents a dataset and supervised classification approach for economic event detection in English news articles. Currently, the economic domain is lacking resources and methods for data-driven supervised event detection. The detection task is conceived as a sentence-level classification task for 10 different economic event types. Two different machine learning approaches were tested: a rich feature set Support Vector Machine (SVM) set-up and a word-vector-based long short-term memory recurrent neural network (RNN-LSTM) set-up. We show satisfactory results for most event types, with the linear kernel SVM outperforming the other experimental set-ups
Overview: Computer vision and machine learning for microstructural characterization and analysis
The characterization and analysis of microstructure is the foundation of
microstructural science, connecting the materials structure to its composition,
process history, and properties. Microstructural quantification traditionally
involves a human deciding a priori what to measure and then devising a
purpose-built method for doing so. However, recent advances in data science,
including computer vision (CV) and machine learning (ML) offer new approaches
to extracting information from microstructural images. This overview surveys CV
approaches to numerically encode the visual information contained in a
microstructural image, which then provides input to supervised or unsupervised
ML algorithms that find associations and trends in the high-dimensional image
representation. CV/ML systems for microstructural characterization and analysis
span the taxonomy of image analysis tasks, including image classification,
semantic segmentation, object detection, and instance segmentation. These tools
enable new approaches to microstructural analysis, including the development of
new, rich visual metrics and the discovery of
processing-microstructure-property relationships.Comment: submitted to Materials and Metallurgical Transactions
