Cross-Lingual Semantic Role Labeling with High-Quality Translated Training Corpus
Many efforts of research are devoted to semantic role labeling (SRL) which is
crucial for natural language understanding. Supervised approaches have achieved
impressing performances when large-scale corpora are available for
resource-rich languages such as English. While for the low-resource languages
with no annotated SRL dataset, it is still challenging to obtain competitive
performances. Cross-lingual SRL is one promising way to address the problem,
which has achieved great advances with the help of model transferring and
annotation projection. In this paper, we propose a novel alternative based on
corpus translation, constructing high-quality training datasets for the target
languages from the source gold-standard SRL annotations. Experimental results
on Universal Proposition Bank show that the translation-based method is highly
effective, and the automatic pseudo datasets can improve the target-language
SRL performances significantly.Comment: Accepted at ACL 202
Polyethylenimine-Modified Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes for Plasmid DNA Gene Delivery
An efficient molecular delivery technique based on the transporting high-molecular-weight PEI 600K-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PEI 600K-MWCNTs) into cell membranes is reported. The PEI 600K-MWCNTs exhibit low cytotoxicity and its associated plasmid DNA (pDNA) is delivered to cells efficiently, and the green fluorescent protein (GFP) levels up to 18 times higher than that of naked DNA were observed
