Training Large-Vocabulary Neural Language Models by Private Federated Learning for Resource-Constrained Devices

Mingbin Xu, Congzheng Song, Ye Tian +10

Federated Learning (FL) is a technique to train models using data distributed across devices. Differential Privacy (DP) provides a formal privacy guarantee for sensitive data. Our…

Effective Context and Fragment Feature Usage for Named Entity Recognition

Nargiza Nosirova, Mingbin Xu, Hui Jiang

In this paper, we explore a new approach to named entity recognition (NER) with the goal of learning from context and fragment features more effectively, contributing to the improv…

A Multi-task Learning Approach for Named Entity Recognition using Local Detection

Nargiza Nosirova, Mingbin Xu, Hui Jiang

Named entity recognition (NER) systems that perform well require task-related and manually annotated datasets. However, they are expensive to develop, and are thus limited in size.…

A General FOFE-net Framework for Simple and Effective Question Answering over Knowledge Bases

Dekun Wu, Nana Nosirova, Hui Jiang +1

Question answering over knowledge base (KB-QA) has recently become a popular research topic in NLP. One popular way to solve the KB-QA problem is to make use of a pipeline of sever…

Fixed-Size Ordinally Forgetting Encoding Based Word Sense Disambiguation

Xi Zhu, Mingbin Xu, Hui Jiang

In this paper, we present our method of using fixed-size ordinally forgetting encoding (FOFE) to solve the word sense disambiguation (WSD) problem. FOFE enables us to encode variab…

A FOFE-based Local Detection Approach for Named Entity Recognition and Mention Detection

Mingbin Xu, Hui Jiang

In this paper, we study a novel approach for named entity recognition (NER) and mention detection in natural language processing. Instead of treating NER as a sequence labelling pr…
