Joint Mention Extraction and Classification with Mention Hypergraphs

We present a novel model for the task of joint mention extraction and classification. Unlike existing approaches, our model is able to effectively capture overlapping mentions with unbounded lengths. The model is highly scalable, with a time complexity that is linear in the number of words in the input sentence and linear in the number of possible mention classes. Our model can be extended to a...

Mention ”Informatique”

The scarce resources in wireless systems compounded with their highly variable and errorprone propagation characteristics stress the need for efficient resource management. Scheduling is a key tool to allocate efficiently the radio resource. While fading effects have long been combated in wireless networks, primarily devoted to voice calls, they are now seen as an opportunity to increase the ca...

Annotating Concept Mention Patterns

This paper presents an annotation project aimed at elicitation of concept interconnections within people’s common knowledge. Motivation, annotation scheme and relevant previous work are discussed and some potential applications are suggested.

What did you Mention? A Large Scale Mention Detection Benchmark for Spoken and Written Text

We describe a large, high-quality benchmark for the evaluation of Mention Detection tools. The benchmark contains annotations of both named entities as well as other types of entities, annotated on different types of text, ranging from clean text taken from Wikipedia, to noisy spoken data. The benchmark was built through a highly controlled crowd sourcing process to ensure its quality. We descr...
