New York University 2012 System for KBP Slot Filling
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the New York University 2012 system for the KBP regular slot filling (SF) task. The NYU 2012 SF system has a similar architecture to the NYU 2011 system. We improved our distant-supervision based slot-filling component with a few techniques including filtering errors by statistical measures collected from the source corpus, and relabeling erroneous training examples with a set of maximum entropy models and by applying bootstrapped/hand-coded patterns. We also augmented our query expansion procedure. After the formal evaluation we experimented with models for estimating slot confidence. We report on the impact of these changes.

Off to a Cold Start: New York University's 2013 Knowledge Base Population Systems
New York University submitted two runs this year: a KBP Slot Filling run and a Cold Start run. The Slot Filling run used the same system as last year (Min et al. 2012), with only the minimal changes needed to address the revised specifications. These included changes in the provenance information and collapsing employee_of and member_of slots. We included the confidence estimation step (Li and ...

New York University (NYU) participated in three tracks of the 2014 TAC-KBP evaluation: English Slot Filling, Cold Start and Entity Discovery and Linking. While this year is the first time and second time we participated in entity discovery and linking (EDL) and cold start respectively, we have been working on the slot filling task for several years. With additional development time this year, o...
متن کاملNew York University 2011 System for KBP Slot Filling
The NYU Knowledge Base Population (KBP) slot filling system for 2011 was built upon the system for 2010. The primary addition was a set of classifiers trained using distant supervision. A secondary addition involved a slot-specific passage retrieval system combined with name-type-based answer selection -in effect, a simple QA system. In the three sections that follow, we review the 2010 baselin...
متن کاملGDUFS at Slot Filling TAC-KBP 2012
This document describes our first attempt at Slot Filling task at TAC-KBP 2012. We construct a baseline system consisting of four components, i.e. query expansion, document retrieval, pattern learning and matching, and answer selection and filtering. We are pleased to identify areas for improvement and directions for exploring new approaches based on the groundwork prepared for this task.
متن کاملGhent University-IBCN Participation in TAC-KBP 2014 Slot Filling and Cold Start Tasks
This paper presents the system of the UGENT IBCN team for the TAC KBP 2014 slot filling and cold start (slot filling variant) tasks. This was the team’s first participation in both tasks. The slot filling system uses distant supervision to generate training data combined with a noise reduction step, and two different types of classifiers. We show that the noise reduction step significantly impr...
