UWashington: Negation Resolution using Machine Learning Methods
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper reports on a simple system for resolving the scope of negation in the closed track of the *SEM 2012 Shared Task. Cue detection is performed using regular expression rules extracted from the training data. Both scope tokens and negated event tokens are resolved using a Conditional Random Field (CRF) sequence tagger – namely the SimpleTagger library in the MALLET machine learning toolkit. The full negation F1 score obtained for the task evaluation is 48.09% (P=74.02%, R=35.61%) which ranks this system fourth among the six submitted for the closed track.

Corpus based coreference resolution for Farsi text
"Coreference resolution" or "finding all expressions that refer to the same entity" in a text, is one of the important requirements in natural language processing. Two words are coreference when both refer to a single entity in the text or the real world. So the main task of coreference resolution systems is to identify terms that refer to a unique entity. A coreference resolution tool could be...
متن کاملModeling and Representing Negation in Data-driven Machine Learning-based Sentiment Analysis
We propose a scheme for explicitly modeling and representing negation of word n-grams in an augmented word n-gram feature space. For the purpose of negation scope detection, we compare 2 methods: the simpler regular expression-based NegEx, and the more sophisticated Conditional Random Field-based LingScope. Additionally, we capture negation implicitly via word biand trigrams. We analyze the imp...
متن کاملInferring the Scope of Negation and Speculation Via Dependency Analysis
In the last few years negation and speculation scope classification systems have been developed successfully, most of them using machine–learning approaches. In this paper we present a competitive system that finds the scope of negation and speculation in sentences for English by means of syntactic dependency analysis without using machine–learning. A greedy algorithm first detects the cues (le...
متن کاملA Hybrid Algorithm based on Deep Learning and Restricted Boltzmann Machine for Car Semantic Segmentation from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)-based Thermal Infrared Images
Nowadays, ground vehicle monitoring (GVM) is one of the areas of application in the intelligent traffic control system using image processing methods. In this context, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles based on thermal infrared (UAV-TIR) images is one of the optimal options for GVM due to the suitable spatial resolution, cost-effective and low volume of images. The methods that have been prop...
متن کاملLearning the Scope of Negation in Biomedical Texts
In this paper we present a machine learning system that finds the scope of negation in biomedical texts. The system consists of two memory-based engines, one that decides if the tokens in a sentence are negation signals, and another that finds the full scope of these negation signals. Our approach to negation detection differs in two main aspects from existing research on negation. First, we fo...
