We present MULTIP (Multi-instance Learning Paraphrase Model), a new model suited to identify paraphrases within the short messages on Twitter. We jointly model paraphrase relations between word and sentence pairs and assume only sentence-level annotations during learning. Using this principled latent variable model alone, we achieve the performance competitive with a state-of-the-art method whi...

Learning phrase representations has been widely explored in many Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks (e.g., Sentiment Analysis, Machine Translation) and has shown promising improvements. Previous studies either learn noncompositional phrase representations with general word embedding learning techniques or learn compositional phrase representations based on syntactic structures, which eithe...

Abundant Chinese paraphrasing resource on Internet can be attained from different Chinese translations of one foreign masterpiece. Paraphrases corpus is the corpus that includes sentence pairs to convey the same information. The irregular characteristics of the real monolingual parallel texts, especially without the strictly aligned paragraph boundaries between two translations, bring a challen...

We describe a method for recognizing textual entailment that uses the length of the longest common subsequence (LCS) between two texts as its decision criterion. Rather than requiring strict word matching in the common subsequences, we perform a flexible match using automatically generated paraphrases. We find that the use of paraphrases over strict word matches represents an average F-measure ...

1 In this paper, we present a study for extracting and aligning paraphrases in the context of Sentence Compression. First, we justify the application of a new measure for the automatic extraction of paraphrase corpora. Second, we discuss the work done by (Barzilay & Lee, 2003) who use clustering of paraphrases to induce rewriting rules. We will see, through classical visualization methodologies...

This paper addresses the issue of what approach should be used for building a corpus of sentential paraphrases depending on one’s requirements. Six strategies are studied: (1) multiple translations into a single language from another language; (2) multiple translations into a single language from different other languages; (3) multiple descriptions of short videos; (4) multiple subtitles for th...
