Improved Neural Text Attribute Transfer with Non-parallel Data

Igor Melnyk, Cicero Nogueira dos Santos, Kahini Wadhawan +2

Text attribute transfer using non-parallel data requires methods that can perform disentanglement of content and linguistic attributes. In this work, we propose multiple improvemen…

Learning Loss Functions for Semi-supervised Learning via Discriminative Adversarial Networks

Cicero Nogueira dos Santos, Kahini Wadhawan, Bowen Zhou

We propose discriminative adversarial networks (DAN) for semi-supervised learning and loss function learning. Our DAN approach builds upon generative adversarial networks (GANs) an…

Improved Neural Relation Detection for Knowledge Base Question Answering

Mo Yu, Wenpeng Yin, Kazi Saidul Hasan +3

Relation detection is a core component for many NLP applications including Knowledge Base Question Answering (KBQA). In this paper, we propose a hierarchical recurrent neural netwo…

A Structured Self-attentive Sentence Embedding

Zhouhan Lin, Minwei Feng, Cicero Nogueira dos Santos +4

This paper proposes a new model for extracting an interpretable sentence embedding by introducing self-attention. Instead of using a vector, we use a 2-D matrix to represent the em…

Attentive Pooling Networks

Cicero dos Santos, Ming Tan, Bing Xiang +1

In this work, we propose Attentive Pooling (AP), a two-way attention mechanism for discriminative model training. In the context of pair-wise ranking or classification with neural…

Boosting Named Entity Recognition with Neural Character Embeddings

Cicero Nogueira dos Santos, Victor Guimarães

Most state-of-the-art named entity recognition (NER) systems rely on handcrafted features and on the output of other NLP tasks such as part-of-speech (POS) tagging and text chunkin…
