Domain-Specific Paraphrase Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The validity of applying paraphrase rules depends on the domain of the text that they are being applied to. We develop a novel method for extracting domainspecific paraphrases. We adapt the bilingual pivoting paraphrase method to bias the training data to be more like our target domain of biology. Our best model results in higher precision while retaining complete recall, giving a 10% relative improvement in AUC.

Extract Domain-specific Paraphrase from Monolingual Corpus for Automatic Evaluation of Machine Translation
Paraphrase can help match synonyms or match phrases with the same or similar meaning, thus it plays an important role in automatic evaluation of machine translation. The traditional approaches extract paraphrase in general domain from bilingual corpus. Because the WMT16 metrics task consists of three subtasks, namely news domain, medical domain, and IT domain, we propose to extract domainspecif...
متن کاملParaphrase Alignment for Synonym Evidence Discovery
We describe a new unsupervised approach for synonymy discovery by aligning paraphrases in monolingual domain corpora. For that purpose, we identify phrasal terms that convey most of the concepts within domains and adapt a methodology for the automatic extraction and alignment of paraphrases to identify paraphrase casts from which valid synonyms are discovered. Results performed on two different...
متن کاملAligning Predicate-Argument Structures for Paraphrase Fragment Extraction
Paraphrases and paraphrasing algorithms have been found of great importance in various natural language processing tasks. While most paraphrase extraction approaches extract equivalent sentences, sentences are an inconvenient unit for further processing, because they are too specific, and often not exact paraphrases. Paraphrase fragment extraction is a technique that post-processes sentential p...
متن کاملAutomatic Acquisition of Context-Specific Lexical Paraphrases
Lexical paraphrasing aims at acquiring word-level paraphrases. It is critical for many Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, such as Question Answering (QA), Information Extraction (IE), and Machine Translation (MT). Since the meaning and usage of a word can vary in distinct contexts, different paraphrases should be acquired according to the contexts. However, most of the existing res...
متن کاملAugmentable Paraphrase Extraction Framework
Paraphrase extraction relying on a single factor such as distribution similarity or translation similarity might lead to the loss of some linguistic properties. In this paper, we propose a paraphrase extraction framework, which accommodates various linguistically motivated factors to optimize the quality of paraphrase extraction. The major contributions of this study lie in the augmentable para...
