چکیده

In this paper we explore the applicability of existing coreference resolution systems to a biomedical genre: radiology reports. Analysis revealed that, due to the idiosyncrasies of the domain, both the formulation of the problem of coreference resolution and its solution need significant domain adaptation work. We reformulated the task and developed an unsupervised algorithm based on heuristics for coreference resolution in radiology reports. The algorithm is shown to perform well on a test dataset of 150 manually annotated radiology reports.

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...

Domain Adaptation with Active Learning for Coreference Resolution

In the literature, most prior work on coreference resolution centered on the newswire domain. Although a coreference resolution system trained on the newswire domain performs well on newswire texts, there is a huge performance drop when it is applied to the biomedical domain. In this paper, we present an approach integrating domain adaptation with active learning to adapt coreference resolution...

Corefrence resolution with deep learning in the Persian Labnguage

Coreference resolution is an advanced issue in natural language processing. Nowadays, due to the extension of social networks, TV channels, news agencies, the Internet, etc. in human life, reading all the contents, analyzing them, and finding a relation between them require time and cost. In the present era, text analysis is performed using various natural language processing techniques, one ...

Adapting Coreference Resolution for Narrative Processing

Domain adaptation is a challenge for supervised NLP systems because of expensive and time-consuming manual annotated resources. We present a novel method to adapt a supervised coreference resolution system trained on newswire to short narrative stories without retraining the system. The idea is to perform inference via an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation with the features of narrati...

Domain Adaptation for Coreference Resolution: An Adaptive Ensemble Approach

We propose an adaptive ensemble method to adapt coreference resolution across domains. This method has three features: (1) it can optimize for any user-specified objective measure; (2) it can make document-specific prediction rather than rely on a fixed base model or a fixed set of base models; (3) it can automatically adjust the active ensemble members during prediction. With simplification, t...
