Short Text Understanding by Leveraging Knowledge into Topic Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the challenging task of understanding short text (STU task) by jointly considering topic modeling and knowledge incorporation. Knowledge incorporation can solve the content sparsity problem effectively for topic modeling. Specifically, the phrase topic model is proposed to leverage the auto-mined knowledge, i.e., the phrases, to guide the generative process of short text. Experimental results illustrate the effectiveness of the mechanism that utilizes knowledge to improve topic modeling’s performance.

Grounding Topic Models with Knowledge Bases
Topic models represent latent topics as probability distributions over words which can be hard to interpret due to the lack of grounded semantics. In this paper, we propose a structured topic representation based on an entity taxonomy from a knowledge base. A probabilistic model is developed to infer both hidden topics and entities from text corpora. Each topic is equipped with a random walk ov...
متن کاملShort Text Conceptualization Using a Probabilistic Knowledgebase
Most text mining tasks, including clustering and topic detection, are based on statistical methods that treat text as bags of words. Semantics in the text is largely ignored in the mining process, and mining results often have low interpretability. One particular challenge faced by such approaches lies in short text understanding, as short texts lack enough content from which statistical conclu...
متن کاملGeneric Analysis of Literary Translation: A Case Study of Contemporary English Short Stories
Translation of a literary text is a difficult task, for understanding literature requires knowledge of various linguistic levels of a literary text in addition to strategies and methods of translation. To this should still be added cognitive-based translation training which helps practitioners preserve the aesthetic aspects of a literary text. Focusing on short story as a genre with both ...
متن کاملContext-Dependent Conceptualization
Conceptualization seeks to map a short text (i.e., a word or a phrase) to a set of concepts as a mechanism of understanding text. Most of prior research in conceptualization uses human-crafted knowledge bases that map instances to concepts. Such approaches to conceptualization have the limitation that the mappings are not context sensitive. To overcome this limitation, we propose a framework in...
متن کاملA review of text mining approaches and their function in discovering and extracting a topic
Background and aim: Four text mining methods are examined and focused on understanding and identifying their properties and limitations in subject discovery. Methodology: The study is an analytical review of the literature of text mining and topic modeling. Findings: LSA could be used to classify specific and unique topics in documents that address only a single topic. The other three text min...
