Expanding spoken language understanding to handle complex entities and intents.
problem Handling compound entities and intents in spoken language understanding.
method Introducing a domain-agnostic shallow parser that handles linguistic coordination, learning domain-independent and slot-independent features.
result The model learns to segment conjunct boundaries of various phrasal categories and improves generalization across different slot types using adversarial training.
This chapter is an attempt to present a mathematical theory of compound fractional Poisson processes. The chapter begins with the characterization of a well-known Lévy process: The compound Poisson process. The semi-Markov extension of the compound Poisson process naturally leads to the compound fractional Poisson proc…
High throughput screening of compounds (chemicals) is an essential part of drug discovery [7], involving thousands to millions of compounds, with the purpose of identifying candidate hits. Most statistical tools, including the industry standard B-score method, work on individual compound plates and do not exploit cross…
In this paper, we introduce a new model for the risk process based on general compound Hawkes process (GCHP) for the arrival of claims. We call it risk model based on general compound Hawkes process (RMGCHP). The Law of Large Numbers (LLN) and the Functional Central Limit Theorem (FCLT) are proved. We also study the ma…
Normalized compound random measures are flexible nonparametric priors for related distributions. We consider building general nonparametric regression models using normalized compound random measure mixture models. Posterior inference is made using a novel pseudo-marginal Metropolis-Hastings sampler for normalized comp…
This study deals with the problem of pricing compound options when the underlying asset follows a mixed fractional Brownian motion with jumps. An analytic formula for compound options is derived under the risk neutral measure. Then, these results are applied to value extendible options. Moreover, some special cases of …
Improves cross-lingual NER by projecting entities from one language to another.
problem Limited annotated corpora for named entity recognition in many languages.
method Uses machine translation twice: first for sentences, then for entities; matches based on ortho- and phonetic similarity; identifies matches using distributional statistics.
result Improves cross-lingual NER by an average of 4.1 points on 5 diverse languages.
Measuring entity relatedness is a fundamental task for many natural language processing and information retrieval applications. Prior work often studies entity relatedness in static settings and an unsupervised manner. However, entities in real-world are often involved in many different relationships, consequently enti…
With the rapid development of high-throughput technologies, parallel acquisition of large-scale drug-informatics data provides huge opportunities to improve pharmaceutical research and development. One significant application is the purpose prediction of small molecule compounds, aiming to specify therapeutic propertie…
Neural production systems learn visual dynamics by applying rule templates to entities.
problem Modeling interactions among entities in structured visual environments.
method Inspired by production systems, the paper uses rule templates to bind placeholder variables to specific entities, scoring and applying the best fitting rules to update entity properties.
result The architecture achieves robust future-state prediction and extrapolation from simple to complex environments, outperforming GNNs.
The understanding of the type of inhibitory interaction plays an important role in drug design. Therefore, researchers are interested to know whether a drug has competitive or non-competitive interaction to particular protein targets. Method: to analyze the interaction types we propose factorization method Macau which …
We propose an analytical approach to the computation of tail probabilities of compound distributions whose individual components have heavy tails. Our approach is based on the contour integration method, and gives rise to a representation of the tail probability of a compound distribution in the form of a rapidly conve…
Named-entity recognition (NER) aims at identifying entities of interest in a text. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have recently been shown to outperform existing NER systems. However, ANNs remain challenging to use for non-expert users. In this paper, we present NeuroNER, an easy-to-use named-entity recognition tool…
