چکیده

Relation extraction is a key step in the problem of structuring natural language text. This paper demonstrates a multi-class classifier for relation extraction, constructed using the distant supervision approach, along with resources of the Semantic Web. In particular, the classifier uses a feature based on the class hierarchy of an ontology that, in conjunction with basic lexical features, improves accuracy and recall. The paper contains extensive experiments, using a corpus extracted from the Wikipedia and the DBpedia ontology, to demonstrate the usefulness of the new feature.

Relation Extraction Using TBL with Distant Supervision

Supervised machine learning methods have been widely used in relation extraction that finds the relation between two named entities in a sentence. However, their disadvantages are that constructing training data is a cost and time consuming job, and the machine learning system is dependent on the domain of the training data. To overcome these disadvantages, we construct a weakly labeled data se...

Improving distant supervision using inference learning

Distant supervision is a widely applied approach to automatic training of relation extraction systems and has the advantage that it can generate large amounts of labelled data with minimal effort. However, this data may contain errors and consequently systems trained using distant supervision tend not to perform as well as those based on manually labelled data. This work proposes a novel method...

Distant Supervision for Relation Extraction beyond the Sentence Boundary

The growing demand for structured knowledge has led to great interest in relation extraction, especially in cases with limited supervision. However, existing distance supervision approaches only extract relations expressed in single sentences. In general, cross-sentence relation extraction is under-explored, even in the supervised-learning setting. In this paper, we propose the first approach f...

A Survey of Distant Supervision Methods using PGMs

Relation Extraction refers to the task of populating a database with tuples of the form r(e1, e2), where r is a relation and e1, e2 are entities. Distant supervision is one such technique which tries to automatically generate training examples based on an existing KB such as Freebase. This paper is a survey of some of the techniques in distant supervision which primarily rely on Probabilistic G...

Exploring Distinctive Features in Distant Supervision for Relation Extraction

Distant supervision (DS) for relation extraction suffers from the noisy labeling problem. Most solutions try to model the noisy instances in the form of multi-instance learning. However, in the non-noisy instances, there may be noisy features which would harm the extraction model. In this paper, we employ a novel approach to address this problem by exploring distinctive features and assigning d...
