Leveraging Affirmative Interpretations from Negation Improves Natural Language Understanding
Md Mosharaf Hossain, Eduardo Blanco
Negation poses a challenge in many natural language understanding tasks. Inspired by the fact that understanding a negated statement often requires humans to infer affirmative inte…
A Question-Answer Driven Approach to Reveal Affirmative Interpretations from Verbal Negations
Md Mosharaf Hossain, Luke Holman, Anusha Kakileti +4
This paper explores a question-answer driven approach to reveal affirmative interpretations from verbal negations (i.e., when a negation cue grammatically modifies a verb). We crea…
An Analysis of Negation in Natural Language Understanding Corpora
Md Mosharaf Hossain, Dhivya Chinnappa, Eduardo Blanco
This paper analyzes negation in eight popular corpora spanning six natural language understanding tasks. We show that these corpora have few negations compared to general-purpose E…
Written Justifications are Key to Aggregate Crowdsourced Forecasts
Saketh Kotamraju, Eduardo Blanco
This paper demonstrates that aggregating crowdsourced forecasts benefits from modeling the written justifications provided by forecasters. Our experiments show that the majority an…
It's not a Non-Issue: Negation as a Source of Error in Machine Translation
Md Mosharaf Hossain, Antonios Anastasopoulos, Eduardo Blanco +1
As machine translation (MT) systems progress at a rapid pace, questions of their adequacy linger. In this study we focus on negation, a universal, core property of human language t…
Dependency-based Text Graphs for Keyphrase and Summary Extraction with Applications to Interactive Content Retrieval
Paul Tarau, Eduardo Blanco
We build a bridge between neural network-based machine learning and graph-based natural language processing and introduce a unified approach to keyphrase, summary and relation extr…
