چکیده

SpaceEval (SemEval 2015 Task 8), which concerns spatial information extraction, builds on the spatial role identification tasks introduced in SemEval 2012 and used in SemEval 2013. Among the host of subtasks presented in SpaceEval, we participated in subtask 3a, which focuses solely on spatial relation extraction. To address the complexity of a MOVELINK, we decompose it into smaller relations so that the roles involved in each relation can be extracted in a joint fashion without losing computational tractability. Our system was ranked first in the official evaluation, achieving an overall spatial relation extraction F-score of 84.5%.

UTD-SpRL: A Joint Approach to Spatial Role Labeling

We present a joint approach for recognizing spatial roles in SemEval-2012 Task 3. Candidate spatial relations, in the form of triples, are heuristically extracted from sentences with high recall. The joint classification of spatial roles is then cast as a binary classification over the candidates. This joint approach allows for a rich feature set based on the complete relation instead of indivi...

Support Vector Machine with Ensemble Tree Kernel for Relation Extraction

Relation extraction is one of the important research topics in the field of information extraction research. To solve the problem of semantic variation in traditional semisupervised relation extraction algorithm, this paper proposes a novel semisupervised relation extraction algorithm based on ensemble learning (LXRE). The new algorithm mainly uses two kinds of support vector machine classifier...

Ensemble-Based Medical Relation Classification

Despite the successes of distant supervision approaches to relation extraction in the news domain, the lack of a comprehensive ontology of medical relations makes it difficult to apply such approaches to relation classification in the medical domain. In light of this difficulty, we propose an ensemble approach to this task where we exploit human-supplied knowledge to guide the design of members...

Using Spatial Analysis to Inform Community Immunization Strategies

INTRODUCTION Recent pertussis outbreaks in the United States suggest our response to local disease outbreaks (eg, vaccine-preventable Bordetella pertussis) may benefit from understanding and applying spatial analytical methods that use data from immunization information systems at a subcounty level. METHODS A 2012 study on Denver, CO, residents less than 19 years of age confirmed pertussis ca...

Classification of EEG-based motor imagery BCI by using ECOC

AbstractAccuracy in identifying the subjects’ intentions for moving their different limbs from EEG signals is regarded as an important factor in the studies related to BCI. In fact, the complexity of motor-imagination and low amount of signal-to-noise ratio for EEG signal makes this identification as a difficult task. In order to overcome these complexities, many techniques such as variou...
