Table-to-Text: Describing Table Region with Natural Language

In this paper, we present a generative model to generate a natural language sentence describing a table region, e.g., a row. The model maps a row from a table to a continuous vector and then generates a natural language sentence by leveraging the semantics of a table. To deal with rare words appearing in a table, we develop a flexible copying mechanism that selectively replicates contents from the table in the output sequence. Extensive experiments demonstrate the accuracy of the model and the power of the copying mechanism. On two synthetic datasets, WIKIBIO and SIMPLEQUESTIONS, our model improves the current state-of-the-art BLEU-4 score from 34.70 to 40.26 and from 33.32 to 39.12, respectively. Furthermore, we introduce an open-domain dataset WIKITABLETEXT including 13,318 explanatory sentences for 4,962 tables. Our model achieves a BLEU-4 score of 38.23, which outperforms template based and language model based approaches.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures. This paper has been published by AAAI201

UG-based research and development of 3D pipe layout system of the aircraft engine

AbstractStandardized design method is important for the airworthiness certification. Based on the principles and features of the aircraft engine external pipe system, in this paper, the research on the theory of automation of pipe layout has been done. We also put forward the process of automatic and mixed generation of pipe layout, the design of pipe layout system and the resolution of arbitrariness of pipe layout. In order to improve the efficiency of the system, a parameterized component library has been built, on the basis of the secondary development of UG. Therefore, the automation pipe layout and the real-time modification have been achieved. According to the predefined rules, constraint test and result output of the system can be conducted
