Why only Micro-F1? Class Weighting of Measures for Relation Classification

David Harbecke, Yuxuan Chen, Leonhard Hennig +1

Relation classification models are conventionally evaluated using only a single measure, e.g., micro-F1, macro-F1 or AUC. In this work, we analyze weighting schemes, such as micro…

A Comparative Study of Pre-trained Encoders for Low-Resource Named Entity Recognition

Yuxuan Chen, Jonas Mikkelsen, Arne Binder +2

Pre-trained language models (PLM) are effective components of few-shot named entity recognition (NER) approaches when augmented with continued pre-training on task-specific out-of-…

Defx at SemEval-2020 Task 6: Joint Extraction of Concepts and Relations for Definition Extraction

Marc Hübner, Christoph Alt, Robert Schwarzenberg +1

Definition Extraction systems are a valuable knowledge source for both humans and algorithms. In this paper we describe our submissions to the DeftEval shared task (SemEval-2020 Ta…

Bootstrapping Named Entity Recognition in E-Commerce with Positive Unlabeled Learning

Hanchu Zhang, Leonhard Hennig, Christoph Alt +3

Named Entity Recognition (NER) in domains like e-commerce is an understudied problem due to the lack of annotated datasets. Recognizing novel entity types in this domain, such as p…

TACRED Revisited: A Thorough Evaluation of the TACRED Relation Extraction Task

Christoph Alt, Aleksandra Gabryszak, Leonhard Hennig

TACRED (Zhang et al., 2017) is one of the largest, most widely used crowdsourced datasets in Relation Extraction (RE). But, even with recent advances in unsupervised pre-training a…

Considering Likelihood in NLP Classification Explanations with Occlusion and Language Modeling

David Harbecke, Christoph Alt

Recently, state-of-the-art NLP models gained an increasing syntactic and semantic understanding of language, and explanation methods are crucial to understand their decisions. Occl…

Probing Linguistic Features of Sentence-Level Representations in Neural Relation Extraction

Christoph Alt, Aleksandra Gabryszak, Leonhard Hennig

Despite the recent progress, little is known about the features captured by state-of-the-art neural relation extraction (RE) models. Common methods encode the source sentence, cond…

Layerwise Relevance Visualization in Convolutional Text Graph Classifiers

Robert Schwarzenberg, Marc Hübner, David Harbecke +2

Representations in the hidden layers of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) are often hard to interpret since it is difficult to project them into an interpretable domain. Graph Convolution…

Fine-tuning Pre-Trained Transformer Language Models to Distantly Supervised Relation Extraction

Christoph Alt, Marc Hübner, Leonhard Hennig

Distantly supervised relation extraction is widely used to extract relational facts from text, but suffers from noisy labels. Current relation extraction methods try to alleviate t…

Improving Relation Extraction by Pre-trained Language Representations

Christoph Alt, Marc Hübner, Leonhard Hennig

Current state-of-the-art relation extraction methods typically rely on a set of lexical, syntactic, and semantic features, explicitly computed in a pre-processing step. Training fe…

Learning Explanations from Language Data

David Harbecke, Robert Schwarzenberg, Christoph Alt

PatternAttribution is a recent method, introduced in the vision domain, that explains classifications of deep neural networks. We demonstrate that it also generates meaningful inte…
